Pancreatic Cancer Sure Beats Premature Brain Death


By Zamboni

Jim Bunning, that nutcase Republican Senator from Kentucky, has just reminded us how happy we are that Democrats have the White House and majorities in both houses of Congress.

Because that way, when someone like Bunning predicts Ruth Bader Ginsburg's death, we can rest assured that people who think like he does won't be picking Justice Ginsburg's successor.

But we'd caution Mr. Bunning, whose behavior has been weird enough to make Republicans think twice about him in 2010. He should not count out our Ruthie quite yet. (Yes, pancreatic cancer is nothing to sneeze at, but Justice Ginsburg's was caught early — and she's a fighter. Kind of like Patrick Swayze.)

In other words, the nails may be driven in Bunning's political coffin long before it's "case closed" on the only woman currently serving on the Supreme Court.

We cats won't predict. But we HISS at Jim Bunning for being such an insensitive jerk. We can't think of a good enough place to dump our dirty litter boxes — unless it's down his pants.
