Juice, coffee, buttered rye toast, a few Castelvetrano olives, a couple of caperberries and sneering at politicians. Could not just one of them be conducting a torrid, illicit affair with a grown-up adult-type person (and the two of them married, but not to one another), rather than leering after teenagers or immaturely groping sleeping women?
A little bit of old-fashioned adultery -- emphasis on the "adult" -- would be a blamed relief.
I kind of expect politicians to be creepy, lecherous, larcenous and two-faced, but I thought they were adults. Wrong!
you obviously expect too much from pols..... :)

Most of them were supposed to grow up while living in frat houses. That maybe the problem.
ReplyDeleteNo government based on democratic principles can be any better than the people who elected it. The beatings will continue until voting improves.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, an old-fashioned "illicit affair" between two full-fledged, consenting adults would seem downright....classy....at this point.
ReplyDeleteOver here in Ohio, a candidate for governor, currently serving on the Ohio Supreme Court, just announced that he had "relations" with more than 50 women. He seems to think that publicly confessing the fact on TV means he is absolved. What a maroon!
ReplyDeleteVice is a monster of so frightful mien ...
ReplyDelete@Jerry: That sounds more like bragging than confessing.
