    In reply to Bam's Burger Blunder: Dijon Already His 'Mission Accomplished'
    From Wikipedia:


    Grey Poupon is the largest selling Dijon mustard in the U.S.[1] The brand of Dijon-style mustard was originally owned and marketed in the U.S. by the Heublein Company and now owned and manufactured by Kraft Foods. Like other Dijon mustards, Grey Poupon contains a small amount of white wine. It is made with brown mustard seed grown in Canada. The wine used is produced in upstate New York under the supervision of a rabbi, to ensure that the product maintains its kosher status. Grey Poupon became a popular mustard in the late 1970s and 1980s as American tastes broadened from the conventional American yellow mustards.

    Sweet mother of Jesus our media are motherfucking stupid, especially Fox News, and especially Sean Hannity. Grey Poupon is a mass-marketed AMERICAN-made product made by an AMERICAN company. People use it on their BBQ grills, for Christ's sake. Anyone who suggests that the President is somehow being effete by putting it on a burger is the mother of all idiots.

    I am beginning to suspect that all that stuff these Fox people say is aimed not at the people who agree with them ideologically, but at the people who don't agree with them.


    This keeps progressives focused on pointing out false hypocrisies. I am certain that Laura Bush's fridge is filled with such delicious things.


    Also: I know plenty of liberals who have the pallate and tolerance for strong flavors of an eleven-year-old WASP. Some of the lamest, most flavorless food I've ever eaten was prepared by progressives who think, for example, that mold should never-ever be allowed to calcify on pork.

    @gawkimo: The Republicans have disowned the Bush family at the moment, so Laura can fill her fridge with all the cowardly socialist cheeses. George, however, will still favor the aerosol cheese on a Ritz, 'cause that's just how he rolls.

    What is Fox News's "American" standards for spirits? I suppose that box wine and any whiskey made by Seagram's and Jack Daniel's passes the test. Of course, microbrews, small-batch bourbons and bottled wines are evil, blue state decadence.

    @DennyCrane: That's pretty good. You take mascarpone and add it to polenta (kind of like a thicker cornmeal cream-of-wheat). It's not unheard of in Italy. Truth be told, that sounds a bit bland. The best cheese to use is a Gorgonzola that's been sitting out for more than seven hours, but that would be more expensive and probably too strong a taste for the White House correspondents.
