Plate Spinning
.
Long time customer Kellybee had a vision.
Knowing Kellybee, I don’t know if it was from God or Johnny Walker, but all the same, it’s a pretty good vision.
I just had an inspiration…a new term to describe when a politician (or some such windbag) tries to re-explain something they said previously…it’s called “plate-spinning”.
Remember on the old Ed Sullivan Show, he always seemed to feature an act where some guy would spin a bunch plates or bowls or cream pies on top of poles? The poor shlub would then race from pole to pole in a desperate attempt to keep the plates or bowls or pies from falling, all to the tune of “Sabre Dance“.
Watching your boy Mitt Romney fumble his way through another flip-flop reminded me of that act…it also reminded me of a famous quote from boxing promoter Bob Arum:
“Yesterday I was lying, today I am telling the truth.”
Kellybee is a wise man with a solid vision of Mitt Romney.
