20060815 Ben Cardin to cure cancer


Ben Cardin to cure cancer

(Note: this was first posted on KDDC on August 18th, 2006: “20060815 KDDC Ben Cardin to cure cancer.” For some balance please review my colleague, Crablaw’s posts about Congressman Cardin. Comments and views for which I respect…)

Ben Cardin to cure cancer

August 15th, 2006

Before I say another word, I gotta tell ya, God Bless everyone who is running for office. Considering today’s technology which allows saturation coverage of every candidate’s every waking moment. Anyone – everyone - can and will make a mistake or say something that will be taken out of context or utter words that may be misconstrued by the practitioners of professional outrage.

Need I mention this or this or here?

Never-the-less, BlogDC (“100,000 Airplanes” By Andrew Daniller) has the scoop that Congressman Ben Cardin is going to cure cancer.

No mention as to whether or not he invented the Internet.

Hat Tip: Wonkette: “More fuel for the debate on whether life in Washington imitates The West Wing or whether The West Wing imitates life. [Blog DC]”

Apparently BlogDC found it in a post on MyDD: “Ben Cardin's Promise to Cure Cancerby Matt Stoller, Tue Aug 15, 2006 at 12:30:42 PM EST:

“Let's say a credible biochemist friend told you that it was likely that we could cure many forms of cancer by 2015. Would you believe him? Let's say, on the other hand, that a politician running in a hotly contested primary, told you that if you elected him he would cure cancer by 2015. Would you believe him? Welcome to Ben Cardin's strategy. Color me skeptical of Cardin's political approach.”

However, BlogDC made an inaccurate conclusion – Maryland’s Lt. Governor Michael Steele will be out next U. S. Senator.

Anyway – this is what the BlogDC said:

“Remember that episode of The West Wing from the middle of the third season when Bartlet had just been censured by Congress and needed a huge State of the Union bump to give him any chance of winning reelection and so he and Sam began to obsess about promising a cure for cancer within ten years as a message of hope for the country?

Well, I do, and Rep. Ben Cardin is stealing the plot (via Matt Stoller):

"We are going to lick cancer by 2015," Cardin told a group of 15 people

at the HopeWell Cancer Support Center on Falls Road.

Maryland, I hope you like Kweisi Mfume, because he's about to be your next Senator.”

Perhaps it's because I like Cardin more than a committed conservative would that I got rather nasty at him for that piece of ... rhetoric. Glad that Stoller drilled him.

Had Cardin said it in February, or elsewhere, I might have viewed it differently.

20060614 KDDC A surprise for WH Press pool

Will your spouse miss you for a couple of days?
Posted June 14th, 2006 2:15 AM

It seems like a plot from the TV series "West Wing."

"Editor and Publisher" has a story about coordinating the press in the secret plans to fly President George W. Bush to Iraq. It is very interesting read.

Surprise for Reporters: Bush to Baghdad

By By E&P Staff

Published: June 13, 2006 10:00 AM ET
NEW YORK President George W. Bush, seeking to bolster support for Iraq's new government and the U.S. war effort at home, made a surprise visit to Iraq on Tuesday to meet Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.

As 'West Wing' Leaves Office

Last Will and President

As 'West Wing' Leaves Office, a Last Chance to Debrief the Staff

By Jennifer Frey - Washington Post Staff Writer

"C.J., Josh, Toby, Sam - the men and women of TV’s "West Wing" arrived in 1999, and Washington greeted them like rock stars. We tried to elbow into their entourage; we yearned to get inside their faux-D.C. bubble. We even managed to make it a bipartisan event.

"Rep. Tom DeLay crowed about plans to add a House majority whip to the cast. Madeleine Albright made a late-night visit to a taping in Georgetown. Alan Greenspan professed his addiction to the program. And Mayor Anthony Williams managed to get his name linked to "The West Wing" by announcing that the show had "pumped $2.6 million into the local economy" in its first season."

It is worth going to the article on the Washington Post web-site for the character descriptions it has available…
