Battle royale in Vegas
Warren came out SWINGING at Bloomberg pic.twitter.com/3D8bnvvm4m — Pod Save America (@PodSaveAmerica) February 20, 2020 Swamp Rabbit dropped by my shack last night toting a couple of stolen TV dinners with the brand name DEVOUR. Fittingly, we ate them while … Continue reading
An American ‘Parasite’? That’ll be the day.
I was urging Swamp Rabbit to go see the Academy Award-winning Parasite, a dark satire that should appeal to Bernie Sanders fans everywhere. He rolled his eyes and asked what a foreign-language movie directed by a guy named Bong Joon-ho … Continue reading

Bimbo pop, then back to the bogus trial
“What a week!” Swamp Rabbit said. “On Sunday the Super Bowl. On Monday and Tuesday, the Iowa caususes and the State of the Union address. On Wednesday them Republican weasels acquit Trump. That’s four different reasons to get drunk.” “Four … Continue reading

GOP: He’s guilty, so what, let’s acquit

Change your story, change your life!
Swamp Rabbit and I were arguing about lying politicians. I used to think most of them lied only when they thought there was little danger of being found out. Like Richard Nixon, who famously said, “I’m not a crook.” But … Continue reading
NYT to readers: Vote for both of them
“This is pathetic,” I said after reading the editorial twice. “What’s going on at the New York Times?” Swamp Rabbit looked confused. “How would I know? I ain’t no Manhattan neolib. I live in a shack in Tinicum swamp, just … Continue reading

Magnanimous she ain’t
HRC on Bernie Sanders: "He was in Congress for years. He had one senator support him. Nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him, he got nothing done. He was a career politician. It's all just baloney and I … Continue reading

Who’s more anti-Bernie? It’s too close to call.
Joy Reid brought on a “body language expert” to accuse Bernie of lying because his physical posture resembles that of a turtle. Really. https://t.co/CCfSJoGIkU — Michael Tracey (@mtracey) January 18, 2020 Matt Taibbi’s succinct summary of Joy Reid’s most recent … Continue reading

If I lived in Iran, I’d hate us too
