6253: Political Scandals And Sandals.

Dropping the other shoe in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• It’s always easy to get cheap laughs from a President Bush antic, but how the hell did the Secret Service allow some dimwit to hurl two shoes at Dubya without taking the guy down hard—or even putting a bullet in his head? In Iraq, of all places! Should be interesting to see what Kenneth Cole does with this.

• Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, facing heat over allegedly trying to sell Barack Obama’s Senate seat for political favors and loot, has been meeting with top-flight lawyers. The defense attorneys include Edward Genson, who led R. Kelly’s team to victory. Sorry, it’s unlikely the Blagojevich recordings will beat the R. Kelly video.
