Dijongate

In American politics, you never know what will come from under the flood gates…Watergate, Irangate, Monicagate, Travelgate, and now…Dijongate.

Even though Obama and I don’t always have the same politics, we totally agree on choice of condiment. Make it mustard. Last week Obama and Biden were in Arlington, Virginia and stopped into a burger joint for a couple of burgers. Obama dared to order his with the yellow stuff on it.

I know, I know…mustard instead of catsup? Yep…the leader of the Free World and Kat…prefer the turd of the mouse over the sup of the cat. Probably most people would put catsup on their burger, but there are also some radicals out there who must have mayo. Radical PaulA. And not just any mayo…it must be the whip of the miracle.

Now it seems Obama is in a pickle. Obama has been labeled an elitist by some Talking Heads because he ordered his burger with “spicy mustard or a “Dijon mustard.” Personally I think this is just another smear campaign….by a United Catsup Front.

In fact, Obama was quoted as saying in his burger order, “I just want mustard, no ketchup. If you’ve got like a spicy mustard or something like that, or a Dijon mustard, something like that….” He used the phrase, “something like that.” It’s not like he asked for their finest Grey Poupon…year 2009…with an English accent, clenched jaw, and his pinky sticking out.

So big deal, Obama likes a mustard with a little kick. Who wouldn’t want to cover up the taste of a burger from a fast food joint that probably has sat there a couple of days. Nothing like spicy mustard to kill the taste of dried shoe leather.

I like a President who has the hutzpa to ask for a burger the way he likes it. “Have it your way.” After all, isn’t that the American Way???

Turds of the Mouse Unite.
