102 = 47

By Sniffles

So much good gossip about Transvaginal Bob McDonnell and his greedy cheerleader wife has come out at their federal corruption trial. It's wonderful enough to have Bo and Mo looking at a possible 20 years in the hoosegow — but add on all these juicy details, and we are in kitty heaven! Let's savor a few:

Maureen was so furious that "Jonnie" Williams couldn't buy her an Oscar de la Renta dress for the 2010 inaugural that she wrote a scathing email to the campaign adviser who nixed it — on Christmas Eve. "It had no basis in reality," said Phil Cox, now the executive director of the Republican Governors Association. "It was sort of an insane rant." 

Or take this exchange between Transvaginal Bob's staffers in early 2011: "102 loves Jonnie." ("102" was the Capitol Police's code name for Maureen.) "Why does she like him? Because he's loaded?" "Yep."

McDonnell staffers were also vexed that they were expected to beg favors for daughter Cailin McDonnell's wedding. "I knew this would happen," one crabby email said. "I quit." (The staffer didn't.)

But here's the best part: The trial has deliciously dragged in the name of Willard Mitt Romney — which you just gotta love. Turns out that back in 2012, Maureen tried to pitch Willard on Jonnie's unproven nutritional supplement during a campaign event in South Carolina.

Why? Because Jonnie was giving her and Transvaginal Bob thousands of dollars in loans, gifts, luxury vacations, gifts, designer dresses, gifts, rare cognac, gifts and Rolex watches to do so.

You know make that makes Maureen? The real 47 percent — entitled, aggrieved, a taker. We cats PURR.
