Political
Suicide
I've been a fan of Rachel
Maddow since way back in
the hoary glory days of Air
America, when she was just
doing a
radio gig. I knew even then
that she was
extry-special. So it doesn't
sup rise me that she got
a network show nor that
she's currently mopping the
floor
with Sean
Hannity
(who's having trouble getting
advertisers) but it galls
me a little that Republicans
have such little faith in
their
party platform that they
won't go on her show and
defend
the ludicrous and insidious
skullduggery that passes
for conservative governance.
At least ONE of them could
appear
on her show just to call
EPA head Pruitt a fop-doodle
or ninnyhammer
or whatever term was popular
a hundred years ago when
they sold their souls to
Satan.
C'mon, Republicans. She's
just a leetle girl. What
are you skeered of?

Sean Hannity, March 17, 20018:
Hillary destroying her Blackberry
was a crime!
Sean Hannity, June 6, 2018:
If you're being investigated
by Mueller, destroy your
cell phones!

t-Rump: I'm pardoning
Muhammad Ali.
Courts: He was pardoned 47
years ago.
t-Rump: Okay, then the NBA
champs can't come to the
White House.
Cavs/Warriors: We weren't
coming anyway.
t-Rump: Asbestos is safe
to eat.
Everyone else in the world
except Russia: Please go
away.
And this was all before 10AM
today.

In case you hadn't heard,
our Commander in Cheese declared
today that asbestos is perfectly
safe. His Cheeseness is a
proponent of asbestos for
exactly two
reasons:
(1) Russia likes asbestos.
And Russian knows best.
(2) Fat Boy HATED having
to spend money removing asbestos
from his renovated buildings.
His solution was to tell
everyone that guns don't
kill people, uh, that smoking
can't hurt you, uhhhh, that
asbestos is safe.
Yet somehow I imagine that
if an envelope full of the
powdered
stuff
landed on Herr Furor's desk
(And I'm not suggesting anyone
do this, okay?) his staff's
immediate, full-on, lock-down,
hazmat reaction would reveal
just
how idiotic his statement
is.
----------------
Technical note:
After
thinking it over I called
a technical audible on today's
'toon. It used to say "Russian
hush money" but I decided
"our usual NRA bribes" was
more accurate. You may now
return to sharpening your
pitchforks.
