Tidbits And Cat Treats: Sunday/Dimanche Edition

By Miss Kubelik

Season 3 of "Veep" kicks off in a few minutes, so we cats will be quick. Here are a few political thoughts we're entertaining tonight.

Upset about the Supreme Court's decision in McCutcheon v. FEC? Don't just blame Roberts and Alito. Blame Ralph Nader for putting them there.

Wow, Georgia Republican nutbag Donald Perdue really stepped in it when he sniffed about Karen Handel's lack of a college degree. Not only was it kinda 47-percentish, he said it right before the Famous Quitter from Alaska came to the Peach State to campaign for her. Whoops!

On the other hand, we now know that Susan G. Komen's former vice president of public affairs only went to high school. Hm.

Wouldn't it just kill the pundits if in November, Democrats got so scared by Nate Silver that they turned out to vote — while the teabaggers got all discouraged that their candidates lost the primaries, and stayed home?

Finally, tomorrow is a big political day in the province of Quebec. We cats sincerely hope that the Parti Quebecois does not win a majority in the so-called National Assembly. It's been suggested — and the lame protestations of Pauline Maurois notwithstanding, we believe — that a win tomorrow will embolden the PQ on a separation referendum. Note to Maurois: Try to leave Canada, and you can forget getting either an NHL team back in Quebec City or Major League Baseball in Montreal. We cats HISS.
