Jack Kingston and the Mighty Intellect

Tech-savvy Georgia backbencher Jack Kingston wants to be the Republican Conference Chairman, the third ranked Republican in the House. To boost his candidacy he posted one of his trademark YouTubes, promising to "work hard on one-minute speeches" and, presumably, fast-moving web videos that can't spell real good.

Credit the guy for spelling "Ramesh Ponnuru" right and "Donald Rumsfeld" wrong. If you're going to make a mistake, make it politically correct.

(HT: Kathryn Jean Lopez, whom it must be noted is backing the oozy Jeff Sessions in a Senate leadership fight.)

That's ``who,'' actually.

He spelled Larry Kudlow wrong, too

Like KISS Army?

They read like pseudonyms: John Fund. Dick Army. Tom Delay. Hugh Hewitt (who I am convinced is an elaborate parody). Although my fav Herr Dr. Charles von Cabbage Hammer isn't there.

Maybe he was crediting some other guy named Donald Rumsfield.

I used to have a Minnesota North Stars jersey and people kept telling me "you spelled his name wrong" because my own name was one letter different from a famous North Star (Ciccarelli). That was annoying.

Heh heh - what's his wife's name, "Vagina Coastguard"?
