God bless Lisa Graas. Go read all of the Catholic Bandita’s Ten Things [She] Learned About Stacy McCain:
3.) He’s liable to shout, in a crowded restaurant, “WTF?!?!?” if (actually “when”) Carl Cameron breaks into a Santorum speech and steals his thunder (intentionally?), and he is liable to shout in a manner loud enough so that he can be heard by everyone in the (very large) building over loud music and five televisions that are playing at the same time. Also, fist-waving, albeit subtly (if fist-waving can be subtle) may be seen.
2.) He actually interviews people, but only at political venues. He’s not too keen on polling waitresses and customers at the Waffle House, unlike me and Peter. Incidentally, at the Waffle House in a Tennessee town where we stopped, there was one Obama supporter, one Romney supporter, one Paul supporter and one Santorum supporter.
*I ordered and enjoyed a big bowl of grits.
Read the whole thing. I also agree with Lisa in her post that Mrs. The Other McCain is a saint.
Whenever I signed on with Stacy, I guess it was after CPAC ’09? I remarked “You remind me of someone with whom I got into a lot of trouble.” Somewhere in the middle of his irreverent character is something fundamentally American. The major reason I, and, probably, the rest of the fan club, abet him is that we understand we lose that fundamentally American aspect at our peril.
Find your inner Stacy McCain or Lisa Graas, as the case may be, and let’s be about recovering the country.
Both Stacy and Lisa inspire me in my quest for personal redemption and give me hope for our great nation!
AND HIT HER TIP JAR!
The grits were yummy, especially since Stacy paid for them. Thanks, Smitty.
God reward you! Kids gotta eat!
Oh, and….I really would like to point out that the Catholic Church (New Orleans) purchased a lot of the gas to get him home. Just sayin’…. That’s social justice.
I contacted Stacy about grassroots campaign ideas here in Maryland. Within an hour he called me with about a bazillion ideas that were far more interesting and useful than what the campaign ultimately did.
God bless Stacy McCain and Lisa Graas.
“Somewhere in the middle of his irreverent character is something fundamentally American. The major reason I, and, probably, the rest of the fan club, abet him is that we understand we lose that fundamentally American aspect at our peril.”
Amen.
Ditto!
Exactly. Quintessentially American, and a real journalist, but other wives agree: Mrs OtherMcCain is a saint 😉
And not forced by the government, either.
My ht off to you!
I am planning on hitting both Stacy/Lisa tip jars when I get some more Easter orders in for my small business this week. I enjoy reading and knowing you all 🙂 Insight brings hope, you know.
Call yourself lucky, blessed and rich in a way that really matters if there`s one person you can call a good friend !
