Da Bonehead!

I first heard about this on Thingy's blog. It seems that Da Coach regrets not running for the senate in Illinois against Barack Obama.

Ya know, I regret not being coach of the '86 Bears. As coach, I would have made sure that Walter Payton- GREATEST RUNNING BACK EVER- got a Super Bowl touchdown before lovable cartoon character, William "The Refrigerator" Perry got one. The fridge was a defensive lineman. It's not exactly a class act to have your defensive linemen running the ball in a blowout when your Hall Of Fame-bound back should get the ball. It kinda illustrates that, that team was so fucking good that, an idiot like Mike Ditka OR  me could have led them to the Superbowl. But, I would have given the ball to Payton instead of Perry. I'm a purist. Ditka is a showman. He's also a punchline like Chuck Norris is. Daaaaa Beaaaaaarrrs....

Now, Ditka isn't saying that HE would be president right now. He's saying that, had he run and- of course- won against Barack Obama, there would be no President Obama now because there would have been no Senator Obama then. Oh. And he's saying none of this shutdown and other horrible stuff would be happening. Oh. If only we had elected McCain/Palin instead? Oh?

I'm gonna remind him and all that, had Obama not been around to run in '08, a young lady named Hillary Rodham Clinton would still have been running and would have handily defeated McCain/Palin as well. Does Ditka regret not gay-marrying Bill Clinton years ago?  He's not available to comment on that, I guess.

If there's anything republicans hate more than a First Ever Black President, it's a First Ever Woman President Who Is Married To Bill Clinton. Just like yours truly was on the fence as to which candidate I liked best, the GOP was in a quandary as to which they hated the most.

I don't know if President HR Clinton would have made healthcare her mission but, I can guaranfuckingtee  that the teapublicans would have bullied and fought and obstructed her every inch of the way, through both of her terms. Quite likely they'd still be shutting down the government over something to get their hands on Social Security cash, Medicare and anything else they could grab. We'd still have idiots in tri-corner hats and absolutely everything she did would be treasonous, just like with Obama.

So, Ditka- who failed miserably at creating a dynasty with a team that many experts believe might have been the best ever in the NFL, couldn't be bothered to save the country from affordable heathcare, "because of a busy schedule"! 

How ironic that he trashed the Patriots back in '86. It's HIS fault the patriots are getting so soundly whupped now. He just said so himself.
