In a mad rush to see who could say the most mean, dumb stuff about their opponents, Senators Clinton and Obama both used the last few minutes of airtime they could procure before the Pennsylvania primary to lash out at each other in the most ham-handed and sophomoric manner they could. The jeers and barbs fell barely short of the record childish behavior set in 1988 by Michael Dukakis and George H. W. Bush. In that election the Bush camp accused Mr. Dukakis of being a criminal-loving pansy and stated that if they ever saw him alone, they were going to give him a swirlie. The Dukakis campaign responded with, “criminal-loving pansy?!? We know they are, but what is Mike.” To which Bush Sr.’s people responded, “It is a good thing today is opposite day and that Vice President Bush is rubber and Gov. Dukakis glue.”
Hillary Clinton apologized to black voters for remarks made by Geraldine Ferarro while serving as a member of Clinton’s finance committee. Ms. Ferarro insinuated that Barack Obama would not have made it as far in the race for President if he were not black. Clinton made haste to apologize for the remarks which many (including her campaign advisors) viewed as culturally insensitive. No consideration was made for the fact that Ms. Ferarro’s remarks are absolutely true. But, true or not, those comments could have hurt someone’s feelings and there is no place for that in government.

The furor over California’s recent disenfranchisement of 50,000 voters, may prove to be an enormous over-reaction. Fabricated sources close to Votelessness indicate that of the 50,000 votes that will likely remain uncounted due to the constitution-mockingly awful “double bubble” design of the ballot, fully 98 percent were most likely cast by hippie weirdos.

The secret ballot has long been a pretty important part of functioning democracy. It seems that if people are able to find out how you voted, they could coerce you to do it differently than you might be inclined to otherwise do. I know if someone with a recently-broken nose and a large, slightly-bent segment of iron pipe asked me to vote for Ken McGillicuddy for city council…
Wally came into this world in 1945. Little is known (by me) of how it happened. I assume he was hatched from an errant spore or left in a basket somewhere. He was most likely of modest beginnings, but worked tremendously hard to get both of his electrical engineering degrees and his […]
