Cunningham "Pantsed"

I'll always remember that Bill Cunningham was "pantsed" by John McCain virtually on the day that William F. Buckley, Jr. died.

McCain, as with most, didn't realize that he was speaking in "Nazi" country, i.e. Cincinnati talk-radio country.

My big disappointment was that the star up-comer-Republican Rob Portman who will be the next Vice President if McCain wins, did not have the guts to stand up against Cunningham as well. He gave as his excuse that he was backstage and didn't hear all of what Cunningham said. Then he went on to say "boys will be boys," in effect.

But still -- the whole incident showed that the next leader of the Republican Party is decent, but had no idea of what filth is going out over the airways of Clear Channel Communications.
