The Paper of Record
Maureen Dowd writes:
Hillary says Obama is “all hat and no cattle.” You’d think she’d want to avoid cattle metaphors, so as not to rile up those with a past beef about her sketchy windfall on cattle futures. She could simply say he’s all cage and no bird.
From that, I concluded that Clinton had said that Barack Obama was all hat and no cattle at some point. In fact (via Nyhan and Somerby) what happened was:
"There's a great saying in Texas," she said, "all hat and no cattle. Well after seven years of George Bush, we need a lot less hat and lot more cattle."
That's not really the same, now, is it?
