About this time in 1964, the Beatles were storming America. All you need is love, right? These days, it seems like there's precious little love around. Here are some people we cats are feeling crabby about.
Journalists who hold on to important information for their books — Disgusting. Woodward & Bernstein reported in real time, but Woodward & Costa kept details back so they could climb the New York Times bestseller list. Maggie Haberman is the most recent and offensive example. The good news: She's feeling the heat.
"Truckers" who make Canadians and Americans lose paychecks and jobs — The protests in Ottawa have closed the Rideau Centre mall and countless downtown businesses for two weeks now. Which means that retail workers have missed pay (or "paycheques," in Canadian parlance). Do the truckers care? Nope. Now, auto manufacturers have had to shut down due to lack of parts. The good news: Canadians are repelled, and may never vote Conservative again.
Journalists who screamed bloody murder over Hillary's emails but not Benedict Donald's destruction of documents — Our paper copy of The New York Times this morning did not, shall we say, have a banner headline about Trump eating Top Secret documents and flushing them down the toilet. Why not? The good news: More fodder for the January 6 committee and everyone else investigating Trump.
Canadians who support the truckers but haven't a clue — The Ontario Provincial Police is visiting the homes of people who have sympathized with insurrectionists on the Face Thing to make sure they understand what rights they have in a peaceful protest, and — most important — what they don't. Here's a video of one such visit. Hilariously, the Ontarian in this clip cites the Canadian Charter of Rights & Freedoms, which she apparently doesn't know the current Prime Minister's father, Pierre Trudeau, made happen. The good news: Hypocrisy exposed.
Finally, we're rolling into Stupid Bowl weekend, folks. Which means those of us who don't care about football have to dodge all the hype. But because of that, we're happy to graciously give the Puppy Bowl some plugs. Be sure to watch (there are kittens, too). We cats PURR.
