Ding Dong! The Witch is daft.
Which old Witch?
The Clermont Witch!

Ding Dong!
The Clermont Witch is daft!

Wake up - you greedy red.
Rub your eyes,
don't count the dead.

Wake up,
the Clermont Witch is daft!

She's gone where
the Coulters go,
Below - below - below.

Yo-ho, let's close our minds and
belt the points out slow.

Ding Dong the vitriol,
Scream it high!
Screech it low!

Let them know
The Clermont Witch is daft!

Jean Schmidt is a first-term Republican representative who, in 2004, nearly lost to Paul Hackett (a decorated Marine himself, you may recall) in the Second Congressional District of Ohio, an overwhelmingly pro-Republican part of the purple state. Schmidt's near-loss was portrayed by many as a sign of things to come for the GOP.

And come they have, in part due to the emotional breakdown of people like... Jean Schmidt.

Friday Schmidt quoted one of her nutty constituents - Danny Bubp, a reservist Marine and state representative - who called Democratic representative John Murtha a coward for saying, "I have concluded that the presence of U.S. troops is impeding this progress," and suggesting "it is time to bring them home."

Uh, guys, was Ronald Reagan a coward?

In case you haven't heard, Ms. Schmidt and Mr. Bubp, President Reagan - a man the crux of whose military career quickly came and went, like a premature "Mommy" moment, in some otherwise unremarkable studio backroom in Hollywood - cut and run when Marines were attacked and killed in Lebanon.

Terrorists killed 242 Marines in Lebanon by bombing the barracks they occupied. Reagan cut and ran. Period.

Perhaps a moment of reflection would remind Schmidt (and her dopey constituents) that sometimes it's best to change one's mind. To back off. To cut and run.

But Schmidt isn't about logic. She's all frayed nerves (and so soon into her first term!), and the whole world sees just how very "unemotional" the putatively stoic conservatives are; how, among Rapture-ublicans, wishful thinking and a collectively selective memory are smothering pragmatism and humility with increasing regularity.

John Murtha, by the way, is like many Congressional Democrats - he's a veritable war hero. Bronze Star with Valor, two Purple Hearts, and the Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry.

Bubp's most prestigious military recognition is a Commendation Medal. Trust me, a Colonel with nothing higher than a Commendation Medal is much worse than the lamest of REMFs; to anyone with military experience he is quite obviously a joke in the eyes of his superiors.
