Brad Blakeman, Douche Extraordinaire

Blakeman, GOP hack lifer, was on Fox News this morning discussing his thoughts on the inauguration. Or, more accurately, responding to the leading questions dished out by the talking head of the hour. The highlight was this: when Blakeman was prompted with a question about the OMGHUGE size and scope of the inauguration ceremonies, he said essentially that "if you just contemplate the amount of people coming to Washington, and there's going to have to be enough food for them, and places for them to stay, and enough security and portapotties, that this is proof positive that the era of big government is finally back, on Day 1 of the Obama presidency."

Which is hilarious on its own, but is even more funny if you imagine a scenario in which there had NOT been sufficient amenities available to the inauguration-goers, and Blakeman had gone on national TV to criticize the Obama team for not caring about normal people who "came to Washington to celebrate, on their own dime, and were not treated kindly by the rookie President."
