Papa Doc and Baby Doc

Remember Papa Doc and Baby Doc, the Duvaliers of Haiti? I used to use the nicknames Papa Doc and Baby Doc to refer to the Bushes. I think now I will pass them on to their rightful heirs, the Pauls. Both being doctors, the names are perfect, as is the fact they exemplify a similar political bent manifested by the ultra-right wing Duvalier dictatorship.

So if you should see me refer to Baby Doc, understand that I mean Rand Paul. I think it's a great nickname and encourage others to borrow it freely.
