Fun with words

WE'VE GROWN USED TO POLITICIANS (and their consultants) abusing the language, but two current news items are still good enough for a laugh.

We have the recent announcement (from the Begala/McGrath consulting firm) that Mattress Mack's new PAC is up and running, and touting the wonders of red-light cameras, or rather, intersection safety cameras. Who can object, if it's for "safety" or "the children," right?

We also have today's announcement from Dan Patrick that he is forming a new group, the Independent Conservative Republicans of Texas, which will surely stand out from those dastardly dependent, not-conservative other Republicans of Texas (anyone who happens to get in KDAN's crosshairs on any given day, we imagine).
