Weekly Richardson Hit-job: Now Below The Belt!

Big-name columnist/commentator Chuck Offenburger caught Gov. Bill Richardson at a campaign stop Sunday. Richardson gave what Offenburger characterized as a “tremendous 45-minute speech,” but that’s not even half the story:

…but the more he starting lifting his arms, putting his hands behind his head and sticking his hands in his jeans’ front pockets, well, those of us on the east side of the front few rows couldn’t help but notice that the zipper on the fly of those jeans was creeping downward.

My wife Carla Offenburger, who is very good at spotting flaws in men, if you know what I mean, turned to me and whispered, “I think you should be telling him that he needs to zip up his pants!” I had a two-word answer: “Not me.”

Richardson started taking questions from the audience, became even more animated and soon that zipper had slipped down a good four or five inches. Then we could see white underpants – thank God.
