The Great Cookie Scandal

[vraiblonde]

Been hearing about it on the radio for the last couple days, which is at least two days too long for as boring a story as this is:

Some women's magazine runs a Presidential cookie contest, where candidates and/or spouses submit a cookie recipe, then readers vote on which one is best.

Well.

Cindy McCain's recipe was for Oatmeal Scotchies - yes, the recipe from the back of the Hershey's butterscotch chip bag - and Bill Clinton submitted an oatmeal cookie recipe that was printed somewhere else, too. Now, there was no rule that said the cookie had to be an original recipe, and how many ways can you make an oatmeal cookie, anyway? Michelle Obama submitted a shortbread recipe that is almost certainly from somewhere else - how many different ways can you make shortbread? But the news people don't seem to care about her, just Cindy and Bill.

The stuff the media gloms onto, I swear.

If you ask me to provide a 'favorite' recipe, you aren't going to get one of mine, because i don't have one. I have hundreds of favorites, and I haven't written a single one of them.

Carroll Shelby provides me with my Chili Recipe.

Hersheys my cookie recipe.. (though BG's Raspberry Chocolate Chip kicks Hershey's azz!!)

Spaghetti..right from my Uncles, and Campbells soup...

I don't have a single recipe I can call my own.

Yeah, they're definitely stretching on this one!!

I have to give Cindy credit for good taste in cookies, though. Oatmeal Scotchies are yummy!

It's her addition of powdered Vicoden and Percocet that really improves upon the original!

 

[Xaquin44]

noooo do not be like them!

Every now and then it's fun to throw it back.

I thought you lefties liked drug addicts? Always sticking up for them, wanting to spend taxpayer money for their care and feeding, trying to get drugs legalized so druggies won't go to jail.

So why hate on Cindy McCain?

Hate? There was no hate. There was praise...but no hate.

Next post he'll mention Michelle adds Viagara and Cialis to her recipe as improvements upon the original.

No he won't.

No he won't.

Ah, I see you're adhering to the moratorium on not mentioning the unmentionables' name as they are unmentionable with unmentionable policy positions.

No, it wasn't. It was the beer.
