I think I’m going full-on Godwin with this one, but these things happen.
First they came for the latte drinkers; I remained silent. I’m a coffee drinker.
Then they came for those who eat swiss cheese on their cheese steaks; I remained silent. I don’t like cheese steaks.
Then they came for the arugula eaters. I did not speak out. I didn’t know what arugula was.
Now they are coming for the spicy mustard enthusiasts. And all I can say is, “are you guys complete morons?”

I am with you one hundred percent on this entire post.
And I am now hungry for something with spicy mustard. 9:20 is close enough to lunch time, right?
Jason says
I’m really in the mood for a cheese steak sandwich with swiss cheese, spicy mustard and arugula with a latte to drink.

Good thing he didn’t order the burger with fois gras and truffle oil (which they serve). It would’ve taken weeks to clean up the exploded wingnut heads.

What is it, really, with these Reagantots and their premature senescence? This Jacobson clown went to Hahvahd, where, in place of football and basketball they dine. Exotic friggin’ Dijon mustard. Sheesh. I’m sorry that your hippie classmates were all smoking dope and getting laid while Mom made you come straight home and memorize debate cards for the big forensics meet, but it really is no reason to still have a chip on your shoulder thirty years later.

Two words for Doug. Skyline Chili.

I already agreed with Craig on this: Conservatism is dead, and “Mustardgate” is its dying words.

Conservatism is dead? Sure, just like the Democrat party was “dead” in 2004, and the Republicans were dead in ’94 etc etc etc…..You guys have really short memories and no memory of history. Every four to eight years, things change.
Mike Kole says
The only thing either the Ds or Rs have going for them is the idea that Americans seem to consider ‘change’ no more deeply than ‘these guys failed, lets give the others a whirl’. That’s large in terms of those two organizations. In terms of having success by more than a happy accident? Not so much.

But wasn’t it a Margaret Thatcher loving Brit in the first “spicy mustard” commercials???
