A recent Newsweek article reveals that the Mainstream Media’s honeymoon with the Obama administration is officially over. Once reporters compared Barack Obama and his band of miracle workers to gods and heroes of the American Revolution, now they can only find models in cop buddy dramas from the 1970s.
Newsweek says that Hillary Clinton and Obama are the political equivalent of Starsky and Hutch. Why?
The magazine claims it’s because, like Starsky and Hutch, the two started out as political rivals, but now are working in seamless harmony to solve world peace and end global warming.
Do you remember the episode when Huggy Bear gave Starsky a tip about where the Iranians were storing the nuclear centrifuges?
If the media is running out of dynamic seventies duos to describe Obama and Clinton, here are some other possible analogies.
Laverne and Shirley. Two crazy dames manage to screw up everything, as they try to remain lovable. Special guest appearance by Joe Biden as Squiggy.
Cheech and Chong. The political leanings of these two old hippies may unfortunately too right wing for team Clinton-Obama.
Beau and Luke Duke. Bill Clinton makes guest appearance as Boss Hogg.
What about Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid?
We’ll let you figure out which one would be Butch.
