Hey, folks! Did you notice? That guy, Weiner? His last name can also mean a sausage! Wow! All the times he’s been in the news and this is the first time any cartoonist has used that idea! And, wait, there’s more! His name could be slang for a penis! No, really! The insights you get on the editorial page!

So sad and disappointing because he had potential. Now, he’ll just have to get a job on Wall Street or for the NRA.

Why is what Weiner does considered NEWS?

Frank Bruni had a good column about how Weiner and Trump have the same narcissistic problems. Modern scorched-earth politics tends to attract people for whom attention is the only important stimulus. They each even boast over the sizes of their penises! The difference, of course, is that Trump’s is far more dangerous to America.

I went to a GOP seminar on Saul Alinksy. Ninety minutes (with a break), and all they said was “Blame Saul Alinsky,” over and over. Don’t like some ad? Blame Saul Alinsky. Slipping in the polls? Blame Saul Alinsky. Your candidate is a screaming Id with bad hair? Blame Saul Alinsky.

At least the jerk is doing underwear ads and keeping his hands to himself.

As to Alinsky, get over it, and check out Trump’s pocket edition of “The Prince”. (The GOP hymnal today.)

I wish I never knew that so many politicians were perverts. I wish I didn’t know so many of the .01% were perverts and satanists too.I guess the draw of the crossroads IS a big temptation tho, especially to musicians.
