Today both Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden got mad, and we cats loved it.
Pelosi smacked down a "journalist" from Sinclair Broadcasting who asked her if she "hated" Donald Trump. Biden told an Iowa voter — an old, white-guy farmer who you just know voted for Trump — a "damn liar" after the man accused him of selling access to President Obama.
Good for both of them.
First, Pelosi: That dude from right-wing Sinclair may have to kick himself for giving the Speaker of the House such a golden moment to instruct the American people on impeachment. Did he really think that if he repeated a Republican talking point, she wouldn't be able to knock it out of the park? This is what happens when ignorant ideologues masquerading as reporters posture for "big moments" instead of asking serious questions.
As for Joe, we say three cheers for not putting up with any, um, malarkey. Maybe four cheers. We remember how we cringed back in 2004 when our nominee John Kerry said he wasn't going to push back on the Swift Boat smears. The three-time Purple Heart winner didn't know you have to put up a fight? You have to make the bullies back down.
This morning, Kerry endorsed Biden for 2020. If Kerry had fought the Swift Boat lies in '04 like he should have, he could have made today's endorsement as a former President. But — aarrrggghhhh. We cats HISS.
P.S. We love Biden's new ad about Laughingstock Trump. We cats PURR.
