Remember Sharpiegate? (It seems like such a distant, somewhat bizarre memory now). All he had to do was say, "I inadvertently referred a forecast which has subsequently been updated, and fortunately Alabama won't be in the path of the hurricane."

No-one would have thought twice about it. Instead he had to double down, bring out the infamous Sharpie-altered weather map, and make the NWS go along with his bidding. He lies or attacks when he doesn't even have to.

But fer crissakes reporters, when he says things like this, simply ask, "You said this study was a politicized hit job, sir [he likes it when people call him sir], what is that based on? What's your evidence?"

He's afraid someone will come in while he's asleep and implant something in his molars or switch his tanning lotion with bull semen or something.

Know what? It's all true, Plumpy. All 7.8 billion of us are out to gitcha. Don't worry about anyone implanting something in your navel -- we did that years ago. We're watching your every move. We know what you think, what you eat, and how many times you wipe yourself. (What was that? Did you hear that?) We're all busily making up information to make you look bad. We're all -- every one of us -- jealous of your towering intellect, your winning personality, and your Adonis-like body. (There it was again! You didn't hear that?)

We're gonna gitcha, Plumpy.

(Oh, that crunchy tidbit in your last Big Mac? Don't worry about it. You'll find out soon enough... )
