Quote Of The Day: Cher

Courtesy of Cher when she called into Cspan's Washington Journal this weekend to talk about our troops in Iraq and how they are still not getting the body armor they need. She didn't even announce who she was, but the host recognized her voice and asked if she was Cher. She said she was and continued to talk about the pressing troop armor issue. Eventually the subject turned a little and this came out of her mouth:

"One of my best friends is Lou Dobbs."

Uhhhh? Where do you even begin? Cher and Lou Dobbs? The Singer/Actress and the Financial News Guru? That's like the oddest pairing since a talented statuesque glamorous liberal half-Lebanese teenager teemed up with a short conservative 30-something hippie production assistant and ended up making one of the most successful musical and entertainment duos in Hollywood history. Forget Sonny & Cher though, I'd sooooo buy front row tickets to see Lou & Cher in concert. What would they sing?... "The Debt To Equity Ratio Goes On"?... "You Better Sit Down Day Traders"?... "I Got Market Value Babe"?... "Mama (When My Brokers Have Babies)"?


Forget Madonna. Screw The Rolling Stones. This is the concert of the summer: Lou & Cher!
