Homer Needs to Nod

Aren't you sick of those all those political wives who parade their politician husbands in front of cameras to apologize after they get caught in a sex scandal?

Rep. Mark Souder is, according to the Wall Street Journal's James Taranto. Souder announced he was resigning from Congress the other day after getting caught cheating on his wife.

In today's Best of the Web, Taranto quotes Souder as saying:

Quite frankly, I am sick of spouses who drag their politicians up in front of the cameras, rather than confronting the problem that they caused.

Problem is, Souder didn't say that. He said "Quite frankly, I am sick of politicians who drag their spouses up in front of cameras..."

Personally, I like it better the other way but Souder said what he said.

Expect a "Homer nods" from James tomorrow. But it would be more appropriate for his wife (if he has one) to drag him in front of a webcam to tearfully apologize for the amusement of his many readers.
