Here’s a conversation that some of us had around the FDL watercooler this morning about John "Box Turtle" Cornyn’s getting the National Republican Senatorial Committee chair:

Blue Texan: Boxturtle to head NRSC.

Eli: That’s Big Bad Boxturtle to you, bub.

Attaturk: So they decided to go "even dumber". Good plan.

Watertiger: I’m waiting for them to appoint a box of hair to head (no pun) the committee.

Phoenix Woman: Well, Norm Coleman wanted the job, so there you go.

Watertiger: I’ll go with the box of teeth. That’ll work, too.

Phoenix Woman: Senator Blo-N-Go!

Attaturk: I thought that was Larry Craig?

Phoenix Woman: (rimshot)
