And They Can't Spell, Either!

By Baxter

Republicans are idiots.

Although there is ample evidence of that statement everywhere, let's just focus today on the fine folks at the Republican National Committee, who created a PowerPoint report on party fund raising and presented it last month at a Florida resort.

Ladies and gentlemen, we cats HISS at you, but not for the reason you may suspect. Cruella de Vil's last name is NOT spelled "De Ville." (It's "de Vil" — like "devil" — get it? Sheesh.)

All these grammatical and spelling errors are getting mighty annoying. The rest of the stuff in the presentation — "evil empire," cartoon characters — we simply laugh at. Pathetic, pathetic, pathetic.

However, we do have one caveat — and it's to anybody who writes a check to the GOP.

When we cats were involved in fund raising, one thing we never, ever did was dis the donors. This PowerPoint presentation does just that, repeatedly. We doubt that Republican supporters appreciate being portrayed as "ego-driven" people who are motivated by "tchotchkes."

Lesson of the day: Beware of any group that assumes you are a fool.
