Expressing Appreciation

By Miss Kubelik

Now we cats know why our mothers taught us to write thank-you notes. At first glance, we found the latest political headlines disgusting and depressing. But once we looked closer, we realized that there's a lot of good stuff to be grateful for. So we'd be remiss if we didn't say:

Thank you, Bill Sammon, for finally proving that FOX "News" is nothing but a Republican lie, the biggest misnomer of the century (and maybe ever), and a smarmy organization devoutly to be shunned.

Merci, America, for figuring out that the teabaggers are a bunch of extremists who believe in making all our lives nasty, brutish and short.

Gracias, crazy guy from the New Hampshire Liberty Caucus, for deciding that his state simply has to replicate Representative Steve King's recent right-wing nutfest in Iowa. We can't think of a better way to drive New England moderates to President Obama in 2012.

And finally, danke, GOP, for the biggest class of clowns we cats have ever seen in a Presidential candidate pool. (And we've been around for awhile.) That motley group just keeps getting weirder. Donald Trump? John Bolton? Michele Bachmann? Surely you jest — and here's the topper. Rick Santorum's daughter (not the crying one) has a terminal disease. But he's sticking to the campaign trail. Now, that's what we call "pro-life."

You're absolutely right. We Democrats have so much to be thankful for. This year has brought us a bountiful harvest of halfwits. Every day brings a new crop of craziness, whether it's Newt trying to rationalize his infidelities, Bachmann trying to explain her historical inaccuracies, or Sarah attempting to create a complete sentence. And it just keeps getting better thanks to Donald and so many others.
