The really funny part is that it's a foundation " to deliver Nicaraguan children from poverty." Joe Walsh, working to deliver children from poverty. The irony is crushing.

Geoff has too much personality. And an actual sense of humour.

Only if you are on your way to drop off that girl at the swingset on your way back from the abortionplex.

But Ann Romney does have a real job.

He seems like he's trying to be America's Greatest Shame, although the competition there is <em>fierce</em>.

Single-term <em>absentee</em> governor, at that.

Excellent catch. Thanks.

I don't see any reason to heed Joe's thoughts on the competency of <i>anyone</i>, much less a President who's already been serving for 3+ years.

Taking paternal advice from Joe Walsh is bad news for Mahlia and Sasha.

From his site: "Joe began his career with Jobs For Youth, working in inner-city Chicago teaching high school dropouts basic academic and job skills; he worked on state and local public policy issues with the Heartland Institute, a free market think tank; he ran the Daniel Murphy Scholarship Fund, a Chicago-based privately funded school voucher program which gives high school scholarships to low-income Chicago eighth graders; he helped launch the Legislative Education Action Drive and Americans for Limited Government, national organizations working to get fiscally conservative state legislators elected in targeted states and advance the causes of limited government; he raised funds for and helped advance the cause of school choice for two of the nation’s leading school choice organizations, the American Education Reform Council and the Milton & Rose Friedman Foundation; and he continues to build support for an international charity which uses education and micro-enterprise to deliver Nicaraguan children from poverty, the Fabretto Children’s Foundation." I don't know. Sounds like his job experience isn't much different from "community organizer".

No difference in usage, in this case.
