It drives me mad.

Barrack Obama is a...
Harry Reid is a...
Mitch McConnell is a...
Lot of reptiles in this administration, I’m noticing.
“Nancy Pelosi is hot”
In which alternate universe?
Yes, mostly of the variety that has no limbs and slithers on its belly.
Mitch McConnell is a turtle... that’s funny right there.
