Thanks for the ping.
Just yesterday I received a letter from McCain. Some conservative volunteer group he supports in their fight against Senators using defense spending as pork. Ships the Navy doesn't need, etc. Four pages of rant. Then another page for me to fill out and enclose a donation to keep this group with the money to fight against wasted defense spending.
I threw it in the garbage. I assumed he was getting names to add to his donor list for his run for the nomination for president.
"And we intend to make it even harder for such dour parasitic lice as these to remain AS public servants."
Dour parasitic lice.
Great line.
Great post, thank you SofA.
