At the First Debate

Hilary and Obama, woe-begotten 'Centrists' like them long forgotten Sanders' philosophy - Big Tent Bernie's, ahem, almost incontinent Biden's supporting increased Medicare He'll smell grandma's and grandpa's gray hair O'Rourke's no 'Beta;' he's a Francis Around questions, he does artful dances Ocasio-Cortez so wanted to run But paper ballots use too much carbon Wayne Messam's the Mayor of Miramar He's qualified for Vice-President of Miyanmar Newark's ex-Mayor, the strident Kory Booker His pledge: In the Oval Office, no hookers And lest we forget, there's Senator Liz Warren Claims to be 1/64th Indian, the moron Just can't wait for that first Democrat debate Twenty candidates -- every last one of them GREAT

Bernie's people called me threatening to sue, but he's waived them off now, as he's too busy cleaning up the mess around the toilet in their office. LOL.

Oh, but I am --- dead ones. LOL. Seriously speaking, a longtime friend of mine recently was appointed to the House of Representatives in Washington. This new fellow was (!) as honest as the day is long. No more! Within a month of assuming the position, he was defending Ilhan Omar's comment about 9/11, i.e., 'someone did something,' from those (such as Trump and others) who deemed it unpatriotic and/or indefensible. I was beyond shocked. It just shows that politics is the art of expediency, and nothing more ever. I feel badly for this fellow's wife and 9 children. I happen to know that they are ashamed to show their faces in the (Jewish) community in Chicago now.. And they should be! Hope she divorces him forthwith. A pox on all politicos. Thanks for the comment, Tom!
