Yesterday I twisted George’s foot, when I hit a snag crossing a street. I shall have to go in for emergency repairs. Pardon my rush. Wendy is coming, and I overslept. It’s later, and Wendy overslept too. Tomorrow I’m meeting two prison volunteers and a former prisoner for a working lunch, so please e3xpect no more than a Personal Update or an Open Thread.

Today’s took me 3:56 (average 4:32). To do it, click here. How did you do?
Short Takes:
From Think Progress: “I guarantee you somewhere in Kentucky today a child was sexually assaulted that was left at home because there was nobody there to watch them,” Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin (R) said to a reporter Friday. He claimed “hundreds of thousands” of children were left home alone as the result of statewide teacher walkouts, and that predators would have used this knowledge to attack unattended children.
He also “guaranteed” that a child ingested poison because their teachers were attending a protest and the child’s parent wouldn’t have enough money to take care of them. Bevin, who offered no evidence for his claims, said he was offended that caretakers would so “cavalierly… skip work” to attend the protest.
It is considerably more likely that children were assaulted, because they had the misfortune to be born to Republican perverts. RESIST!!
From YouTube (SNL Channel): Meet the Parents Cold Open
That was not credible. The real Cohen would have broken the polygraph machine. RESIST!!
From YouTube (RWW Channel): RWW News: Liz Crokin Knows That ‘A Video Of Hillary Clinton Sexually Abusing A Child Exists’
Barf Bag Alert!!
If the accusation were that Hillary had gone after Slick Willie’s butt with a hot poker, I might have believed it, but this is so absurd that it’s positively Republican. RESIST!!
