chris christie and big fat american suckiness.

heard a similar story on the news this morning and was physically sick. of course, the "enlightened" journalists condemning the rest of the news media also seized the chance to have a five-minute lead-in with a compilation of all of the fat jokes comedians, talk shows, and even news anchors have made...

i mean... of course find the prospect of him being elected horrific based on his POLITICS, but i'll crusade endlessly for his ability to run. like... for real? are we really saying that someone isn't a competent leader based on the size of their body? did that really happen?

also, let's just talk about the totally obvious-- there's no way a woman of that same size would be in a position of political power at all, let alone able to even think about running for president. ugh.
