We cats are about to head off to the True North Strong & Free — which did enact an economic stimulus, by the way, no matter what that know-nothing Michele Bachmann says. In the meantime, though, we have a few observations.
Looks like the GOP's newest Presidential candidate, cutie-pie Jon Huntsman, had kind of a rocky rollout yesterday. We cats have enough experience in event planning to know that the campaign's logistical mistakes could easily have been avoided. So, this is the vaunted Huntsman campaign team? Oh — right. What can you expect from the same folks who gave you John McCain in front of this sickly green backdrop?
The teabagger members of Congress are proposing that Congress stay in session with no breaks for the next 18 months. This, of course, is a ploy to keep President Obama from recess-appointing all those fine folks whose nominations the Republicans have blocked for silly reasons. To which we cats say, fine. You stay in Washington, you also pledge to do no fundraising while you're in session. How do you like them apples?
Bill Kristol is peddling the not-new idea of John Thune for President. Gosh! Are Republicans so desperate not to nominate Mitt Romney that they're recycling old candidate buzz?
Finally, we're still waiting on tenterhooks to see what New York State is going to do about marriage equality. Particularly since we're on our way to a country in which same-sex marriage is legal across the land, and everything seems to be going just fine there, thank you very much.
We cats PURR, and we'll post when we can!
