Honore’s advice to the wrong-headed (including C & D supporters)

Lt. General Russel Honore, Bush’s military commander in New Orleans, has my vote for Best Phrase of 2005. It’s the perfect thing to say to anyone who’s saying, doing, or advocating something dumb.

“Don’t get stuck on stupid,” the blunt-spoken general told a reporter at a Katrina news conference on Tuesday. We thank radioblogger (Duane, Hugh Hewitt’s sidekick) for this gem. See his 9/20 post for the full transcript.

  • Don’t Get Stuck On Stupid
    I have to say this is a refreshing change,
    “You are stuck on stupid, I’m not going to answer that question”

    Mind you this is not the ONLY time the Press has gotten chewed out by this man

    There’s a link to an earlier video where he called the press coverage BS
    LT. GENERAL RUSSEL “RAGIN CAJUN” HONORE TAKES THE PRESS TO THE WOODSHED

    “That’s B.S. It’s B.S.,” Honore raged.

    “I can tell you that is B.S. We have got 300 helicopters and some of the finest EMS workers in the world down there.

    “You need to get on the streets of New Orleans, you can’t sit back here and say what you hear from someone else.”

SHOOTING STAR IN SUNSHINE STATE: Marco Rubio, former speaker of the Florida House who has come from 30 points down in the US Senate Republican primary to lead Gov. Charlie Crist by 15 points, is introduced by Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) at a fundraiser Andrews attended recently in Naples FL. (Does John perhaps need to invest in a better camera phone?)
