I can think of another who read a kindergarten book instead of doing his job. We should be thankful; both are at their best when doing nothing.

When it comes to Dr. Seuss, McCarthy believes exactly what so many on the right believe.

You can try to correct them by showing them Dr. Seuss Enterprises’ statement, and by telling them that it was entirely Dr. Seuss Enterprises’ decision and right to stop printing six books that they own the rights to. You can try to explain that this isn’t censorship, but it doesn’t matter.

They will shout you down, say you are wrong, and complain that you are part of the problem. I know, because it happened to me this week when I thought that I was only providing accurate information. It was quite a disconcerting experience that caught me completely off guard and unprepared.

The degree of desire of Trump to remain fixed in the minds of the American People is substantial.

The Trump “rails against the establishment” story has significance.

The following “do not use my name” story is a further manifestion.

For McCarthy’s next trick, he going to start playing with Mr. Potato Head.

Never mind that Hasbro never said that they are discontinuing Mr. Potato Head or Mrs. Potato Head. Here’s their original statement from February 25, 2021 -

Hasbro is officially renaming the MR. POTATO HEAD brand to POTATO HEAD to better reflect the full line. But rest assured, the iconic MR. and MRS. POTATO HEAD characters aren’t going anywhere and will remain MR. and MRS. POTATO HEAD.

Launching this Fall, the CREATE YOUR POTATO HEAD FAMILY is a celebration of the many faces of families allowing kids to imagine and create their own Potato Head family with 2 large potato bodies, 1 small potato body, and 42 accessories. The possibilities to create your own families are endless with mixing and mashing all the parts and pieces.

CREATE YOUR POTATO HEAD FAMILY is compatible with most standard Potato Head offerings and is a great addition to your Potato Head collection for kids ages 2 and up.
Potato Head has provided endless creative possibilities to our preschoolers for almost 70 years and will continue to do so with the new CREATE YOUR POTATO HEAD FAMILY.

I do not like the QAnon.

I could care less about Don the con.

He can stay in Mar a lago.

Or better yet go away to Tierra del Fuego.

Only thing Abbott is missing is Costello. Wonder who’d line up best as his Costello. Cruz? Gosar? Gaetz?
