Not a Hillary fan, but I have to give her credit: That was handled perfectly!

Yes it was…by the squirrel too. Though I still think its a completely bizarre antic. Or is he part of the republican outreach program to furries or something?

You can tell the squirrel was genuinely moved. He hasn’t changed that expression of wonder since meeting Hillary.

If you have never read Ben Hamper’s “Rivethead” about life on the GM assembly line in the 1970s, DO read it. It includes a tale about GM execs’ idea for improving quality: A giant mascot cat named: “Howie Makem”
I was laughing so hard when I read about it that my wife ran to the room I was in thinking something was terribly wrong.

Another Clinton in the White House is Nuts
Yes, since we all remember how awful the 1990s were. A robust economy, budget surpluses, no endless wars in miserable places. Wouldn’t want to be facing that sort of nightmare again, now would we?

Assembled by Howie, and driven off the line by Toonces. “See, I told you he could build a car! Just not very well!”

Sorry, but I think that tweet was kinda douchey.

It’s yet another illustration of the right-wingers’ gift for humor.
When all of your policy prescriptions are mean-spirited and punitive, and driven by your collected imaginary wounds, it’s tough to do Henny Youngman.
(BTW, must have been tough getting out of his mom’s basement with that bulky suit on.)

Madam showed a lot of grace. The squirrel–not so much. Just the usual GOTP sneer.

The intern in the suit is saying, “It is nuts to be stuck in this suit for a crummy paying job that is going nowhere”. He or she probably wonders why they went to college just to be a squirrel.

Is the GOP rebranding itself as the squirrelly party? Fits.

If cartoonists would start using the squirrel instead of an elephant, that meme would stick.

Jethro: “Uncle Jed, I’m a gonna ask Granny to make us up some vittles! That’s a right big critter right there!”
Jed: “Fetch my shotgun, boy!”

The squirrel is following Hillary because he thinks she has Bill’s nuts.

Republican attempts at humor always fail on so many levels.

How do we now it’s actually a republican intern? It could be Newt Gingrich,nobody has seen him or heard from him lately!

Very smooth, HRC…Unless the squirrel is later found dead in Fort Marcy Park, of course.
I think the squirrel just lost its job. This squirrel was probably a silly idea that some intern came up with. You would hope no one who actually gets paid would come up with that nonsense. I don’t think we will be seeing him anymore.
What I would have given to be a fly on the wall at the “brain storming” session where Reince and RNC boys came up with this squirrel idea.
