73. There Are None So Blind, Sir, As Those Who Will Not See

Thu Mar 19, 2020, 03:49 PM

Mar 2020

Mr. Biden looked pretty good there for a moment. It is hard to cipher out whether you are a Sunday School superintendent, or auditioning for a live action show of 'Caspar Milquetoast, the Early Years', or simply having us on with an imitation of how you imagine people ought to react to displays of primate dominance. The latter are a large part of electoral politics, for better or worse.

"A liberal may be defined as a man who won't take his own side in a quarrel."

"When things are not called by their right names, what is said cannot make sense. When what is said does not make sense, what is planned cannot succeed. When plans do not succeed, people become uneasy. When people are uneasy, punishments do not fit crimes. When punishments do not fit crimes, people cannot know where to put hand or foot."

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
