An Armey Of None
We saw former Rethug Congressman Dick "What A Dick" Armey on Tweety's "Hardball" show last night, and were only mildly surprised to see What A Dick toss a few insulting words to co-panelist Joan Walsh of Salon.
"I'm so glad that you could never be my wife because I surely wouldn't have to listen to that prattle from you every day," What A Dick said after Walsh blasted his Rethug colleagues for wrecking the economy with their policies. Walsh shot back, "Well, wow, that makes two of us sir." Indeed. What A Dick couldn't get an inflatable doll to date him.
What A Dick was called out in the next segment by New York Times columnist Bob Herbert, who said What A Dick should apologize to Walsh. Tweety, who's clueless about appropriate behavior toward women, belatedly agreed that What A Dick's comments were "overboard," which is where What A Dick should be tossed.
