Robert Mitchum. . . What a guy!
You know, whenever a politician or celebrity or some other public figure says something particularly stupid or insulting, I always wonder, "What Would Bob Do?"
Jimmy Carter: "The blockade against Hamas-controlled Gaza is one of the greatest crimes on earth."
Bop! Smack! Ka-Thump! (Bob Mitchum leans down, strikes a match on the exposed grin of the unconscious Carter, lights his cigarette, puts his hands in the pockets of his trench coat, and casually walks away).

I believe while lighting his cigarette, Bob would rest one foot on Jimmeh's shirt front and enjoy a puff or two before walking away.
Bob is much cooler than I. I couldn't resist giving Jimmah a super-wedgie to appreciate while regaining consciousness.
Rebecca, RJ: Excellent suggestions! I'd like to think (if he happened to have one on him) that he'd also pull out a laundry marker and write the word "Dork" on Carter's forehead.
Now if Bogie and Duke were to also passing by, they may also make an impression on the prone figure and walk off with Bob into the foggy night.
Is it true that when people observe Carter walking next to a wall in the late afternoon that all they see is two shadows.

Bob bears a striking resemblance to what I imagine Detective Paco looks like.
This article may interest you Paco (and others too) in light of the Jimmehs out there stubbornly supporting murder and mental sloth.

Bob was so handsome.
Robert Mitchum was the perfect American actor. As much as I liked John Wayne, I preferred Mitchum. I just wished he had put out more movies in his prime.

Paco, now CL has recognised you in blogroll, you have arrived!
I have to object to commenters above introducing gross pollution and mentioning that scumbucket in the same thread as those fine actors. That peanut would give you a fireside chat about the noble Palis while decrying the amazing achievements of the Israelis. He is such a disappointment!

Hi Paco,
Via Andrea Harris, I have now found your blog
Amongst many superb commentators on Tim Blair's old (sniff, sniff) blog, you did shine.
Thank you for all your comments via that forum and I look forward to reading the rest of your output on this blog.
Nice to see some familiar names on the comments above. Hi to you all.
A lurker of the Tim Blair blog.
Thanks to Andrea - that's where I found the link to this place, too, Paco.
Funny, I always thought Detective Paco was more of a Tom Berrenger type...not a pretty bone in his body, but attractive all the same...Mitchum fits that, I suppose...he certainly wasn't pretty!
paco, in light of recent events in ga, just a slight addendum to your original scenario: when bob reaches into his pocket he pulls out a jar of skippy and plops it on mr. jemmeh's chest -- "i never used the stuff anyway." turns and casually walks away. reaches into his other pocket and feels the familiar shape of a vodka bottle. "this," he half-whispers to himself, "i'll keep."
i voted for carter in '76. he's a good man, just wasn't a very good president.
