RS at CPAC: Dan Bongino (R CAND, MD-SEN PRI).

One of the interesting things about CPAC is, of course, that you can meet a whole lot of different candidates.  Below was my conversation with Dan Bongino, who is a former US Secret Service agent now running for Senate in Maryland against Ben Cardin – and if you don’t remember who Ben Cardin is, don’t worry. Cardin’s an amazingly generic Senator who, on his good days, aspires to be as memorable as Herb Kohl.

Anyway, Dan and I talked a bit about CPAC and the race below:

Nodwick is confused about why Lucas himself…

…is so determined to rewrite history itself and declare that Han did not shoot first  (which, by the way, is in contradiction to the original script).  I suspect that I know the answer, but it’s depressing: George Lucas knows that his only hope for any sort of artistic immortality will be because the Holy Trilogy, and he hates that.  So he tortures his movies because, well, he can.

It’s sad, in its way.  Also: kind of creepy.

PS: HAN SHOT FIRST.

#rsrh Racist Democrat Steve Holland tries to memory-hole ‘Gulf of Mexico.’

No, really. This guy wants to rename it “The Gulf of America.” I can’re really improve on this characterization by blog of new orleans (and Fox should have linked):

Riding upon a chariot of Hummers driven by bald eagles, Mississippi Rep. Steve Holland filed a guns blazing cowboy steak of a bill, proudly waving our nation’s red, white and God-fearing blue to protect our American coastal waters.

Seriously, this is an incredibly dunderheaded idea. Even if Holland is trying to go with the “It’s a joke!” pseudo-defense now.
