THE DEMOCATS!

Today, Oct. 29th, is National Cat Day. In observance thereof:


A nutty, nasty, nearly ended national election raises cats to outsize importance. The only truly memorable expression to survive the bloviation -- and which will surely last --  is “childless cat ladies,” a locution by JD Vance of barbed wit unmatched by either H or T. Or as many believe, JD is Trump with a brain. That is scary.


In New York City, a place often anathema even to those who live, love and  e-bike on the sidewalks as a civil right, the City Council, indulgent when not actually harmful, a bill introduced by Manhattan councilperson Shaun Abreu, has passed. It amends the Earned Safe And Sick Time Act (who knew?). The locals would now be able to take paid sick time to care for household pets and service animals.


In Kearney, Nebraska, Dan Osborn, a labor leader and car mechanic argues that "mice keep electing cats," opining that it is not which cat they elect, but that they keep electing them in the first place. If that makes any sense to you, please write.


This is offered up as allegory: i.e.,  the millionaires and billionaires are inoculated from the laws they enact. Or simply put, “we have to stop electing cats.” This is profoundly offensive, even if true. Maybe he meant “Katz”? The gentleman is a Democrat waging a long shot campaign to unseat a long time woman Republican senator. In Nebraska. Good luck there!


If the polls are accurate, the presidential election winner is a toss up. A sub-group of votes could determine the victor.


Go Democats!
