Don’t blame the GOP, blame everyone!

1941: kittens with Joan Caulfield

Blame everyone! Blame the kittens!

Who is to blame for the government shutdown? President Obama would like you to blame Republicans. No way! Just because Republicans planned, organized, and executed the shutdown, you say we should blame them? Scott Brown says we should blame Obama instead, and (just to boost my bipartisan cred here) we should blame everyone. Everybody’s to blame.

Blame Obama. Blame Democrats for not caving on every issue to the Tea Party. Blame the voters who cast millions more votes for Obama than for Romney. Everybody’s to blame. Kittens are to blame. You want to blame the GOP, next thing you’ll be telling me kittens are all so innocent. You and I know who made a big stinky mess in the cat box. It wasn’t Ted Cruz.

Maybe kittens didn’t organize this shutdown, but they could have done a lot more to get our country back on track, couldn’t they. So don’t blame the GOP. Scott Brown says, everybody’s to blame.

Who asked Newt to rain on Scott Brown’s parade?

Newt Gingrich joined the steady trickle of establishment Republicans trying to push Scott Brown away from his “NH roots” such as those NH roots may turn out to be.

“Once you’ve been the senator from a state, that pretty much identifies you as being from that state,” Gingrich told the Boston Herald. Hey, pal, what made you an authority on NH? Was it your humiliating loss in the 2012 NH Primary despite the endorsement of Union Leader? One thing you have to say about Scott Brown — he hasn’t yet suffered a big expensive loss in the NH GOP Presidential primaries.

More #NH cred than you have, pal!
