Think of it as spicy, porky arugula

But.... seriously? I think it's probablysome sort of poorly conceived and third-hand reported joke but it does read like a passage from an Onion article... which I am throwing in because I wanted to use the word onion here.

Vitterwatch

In yesterday's post, I alluded to some of Sen. Vitty's recent stunts intended to bolster his right-wing opposition cred. He's leading the next round of Louisiana teabagging parties scheduled for July 4. He placed a "hold" on Obama's FEMA appointee Craig Fugate for reasons that remain unclear beyond just getting his name above the fold. Right now, I'm thinking Vitter is the leading GOP candidate to mount a quixotic filibuster of Obama's Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor. It would be another opportunity for Vitter to pretend like he's standing up to the President AND appear even nuttier than Jeff Sessions. It seems like a no-brainer move for Vitter as his reelection bid draws nearer... and as long as something requires no brain... well it seems like it's just Vitty's thing.

What I want to know is where can I get some freaking action on this?
