We begin in Mexico City. Hola! For the “Oddball”
big thing of the week.
This week, it‘s the world‘s largest enchilada
coming in at 230 feet long
and 3,100 pounds.
They‘re definitely thinking outside the bun here.
Next time you hear someone saying they‘re going for the whole enchilada,
this is what they‘re talking about.
In fact, Joe Biden was overheard telling the president,
this is one big F-ing enchilada.
Finally, to Hempstead, New York, for last night‘s gubernatorial debate. The lineup included
Democratic candidate Andrew Cuomo,
the former Manhattan madame, Kristin Davis,
the Tea Party‘s favorite e-mailer Carl Paladino.
You know with a crowd like that, there were going to be some fireworks. But one candidate stole
the show.
Ladies and gentlemen, Jimmy McMillan.
I represent the Rent is Too Damn High Party.
People were working eight hours a day and 40 hours a week and some a third job.
The people I‘m here to represent can‘t afford to pay their rent.
They‘re being laid off right now as I speak.
They can't eat breakfast, lunch or dinner. Listen, someone‘s stomach or child‘s stomach just growled.
Did you hear it? You got to listen like me.
It‘s all about jobs,
jobs.
I want my own cable company. I want my own telephone company.
I want my own power plant. I‘ll invite all these gentlemen into my office when I get into Albany.
And we‘ll sit down and have a coffee. I like to have coffee. As a karate expert,
I will not talk about anyone up here. If you want to marry a shoe, I‘ll marry you.
It all boils down to one thing, rent, it‘s too damn high.
Were you listening?
Were you listening? I heard it. I heard it
I love this guy, the gloves, the mustache. Did he say he wants his own power plant?
That‘s awesome. Someone get the man a power plant.
And a razor.
He needs to police that mustache.
On the other hand, he does have a good point about the rent. Mr. McMillan will be on
“THE LAST WORD” with Lawrence O‘Donnell tonight. He is apparently going to tell
Lawrence that Jim DeMint started the recession.
