News that I missed, courtesy of The Babylon Bee:
MIAMI, FL—A major cave-in occurred after all Democratic candidates scrambled to the far left side of the debate stage Thursday evening.
As the debate kicked off, Bernie Sanders immediately ran to the left. Not to be outdone, Joe Biden vaulted over him, demanding to be the one standing farthest to the left. Buttigieg yelled, “Hey, straight dudes! Watch this!” and leaped over both of them in a fabulous cartwheel, landing perfectly right near the edge of stage left. He was given a “10” by the judges.
Kamala Harris called in a SWAT team to shoot at and arrest the other candidates while she rushed to the left side as well, though she was angry to discover this was illegal. Eric Swalwell went a step further and tried to call in a nuclear strike so he could dive as far left as possible while the others would be forced to take cover, but luckily his staffers had just given him a kids’ Spy Gear walkie-talkie and told him it was a nuke button.
As these candidates and the 495 other ones you’ve never heard of rushed to the left, a creaking sound was heard. Finally, the stage gave way, tilted far to the left, and collapsed, “just like the Titanic going down in the icy waters of the Atlantic.”
Go here to read the rest. Real world was even funnier, as Joe Biden indicated yet again what a terrible national candidate he is, something he has been proving over and over again since 1987.
We only had Seven Dwarves when I was a kid.
Biden’s persistence in office is a puzzle, as is the implosion of the Delaware Republican Party in the last 30 years.
Art:
The Roman notion was: up or out, or up then out. You went through the cursus honorum as far as you could go. If you made consul, you served a term or two pillaging a hapless provinces as governor, then retired to babble in the Senate. If you never made consul, you just retired. After a certain point, nobody wanted to bother with you.
Biden and too made older Dems seem to have delusions of significance.
Something was missing in the buffet line.
In trying to define the missing element a flash of orange pantsuit fired up the memory. A Clinton was missing.
How could this be?
It wouldn’t be the same without one stale Clinton to be mixed into the smorgasbord known as the democratic cake-walk…aka 2020 Democratic debate.
Biden?
That is funny.
Biden for President.
Lol.
Joe Biden also toyed with running for President in 2020.
If only Biden was as eager to be a Christian.
