Talent's Version of "Getting it"

“It will show people that Washington gets it,” Jim Talent crowed when he was eagerly claiming to be the "brains" behind the Republican plan to issue $100 checks to all taxpayers to help buy gas. Even though its one of the only things he's tried to accomplish since he went to Washington, he has deleted all references to the misguided effort from his website. His fellow Republicans have called this "brainstorm" insulting, stupid and silly.

Good idea trying to hide this enormous misunderstanding of the common man, Jim. Here's another piece of advice - hide the pictures, too. They make you look like a puffy-lipped sissy.
