Bag’s Take-Away:
The irreverence. The girth. Old Glory. At least for a day this week, it was like the Tea folks never left.
And then, is there something hyper-patriotic about hands-over-privates?

Bag’s Take-Away:
Wonderful shot by NYT’s Stephen Crowley of Santorum train wreck addressing black church.
1. God, where’s my cellphone at a time like this.
2. Hopefully, you and your friends will think twice next time about all the food stamp baiting.
3. And, it’s not even hot in here!

Bag’s Take-Away:
A bunch of news reporters/photogs get down to Santorum’s level. Pretty amazing shot especially given Savanarola’s (oops!) religious orientation and covert seeking of the VP pick on a Romney ticket. (Between the carpet and the heavenly light, I guess I picked up a stained glass vibe.)Via Reuters Picks

Bag’s Take-Away:
I was wondering the other day if Rand Paul would have to go through TSA inspection if he had his father’s private plane. Guess I have my answer.
This made me laugh. Mitt just can’t get a visual break. No one trusts him and, in spite of Univision’s silly belief that Mitt might be the first Mexican-American president, it looks like Latinos don’t trust him either.
