"Strangler" Than Fiction

By Miss Kubelik

Oh, goodness, we can hear the caterwauling now. Vice President Biden has said something that surely will alarm the hypocrites on the Republican right.

We say "hypocrites" because the GOP and their teabagger friends have spent the last two years bleating so outrageously we can barely believe they've maintained any kind of a serious presence in the political discourse. And they've only gotten worse, not better. Today, a mere month before the midterms, we have one statewide Republican candidate starting a campaign ad with "I'm not a witch," and another saying he'd like to take away Americans' ability to directly elect their Senators.

With all this nutty behavior as backdrop, it seems silly that anyone could take umbrage at the Vice President wanting to strangle a few Republicans. After all, we don't recall the GOP getting very upset when Grover Norquist said he wanted to do the same to the federal government. In the bathtub, no less.
