I wouldn't have thought Croup was taller than Vandemar.

Best image I could find. It's shocking how few there are from the TV series... Maybe I'll take a screen cap next time I watch it.

The main reason for the Drumpfenfuhrer phenomenon is the GOP's cultivation, with the help of Faux News, of an ignorant, angry, racist base. But what finally put them behind the 8-ball this year is the complete absence of a single credible candidate. They all suck - every last one of them.

Not directly - but I've made some good deals. You might even call them terrific.

Oh, is that what Maduro did? Of course ChΓ‘vez only joined the army because it was the best way for a poor kid to get into top-league baseball.

In Canada, there is no limit on the number of parties that can run a candidate, so long as they have met certain requirements. I remember taking my daughter to vote for the first time - I think there were at least 8 or 9 names on the ballot for one seat. She perked right up when she saw there was a Marijuana party - and in the glory days we had the Rhinocerous party (neorhinos) which ran on a platform of repealing the law of gravity and promising not to keep any promises, if elected. We have 4 main parties now - 5 if you count the Bloc in Quebec.

The problem for me is that someone like Stephen Harper could win a absolute majority with about 35% of the popular vote. Without proportional representation, the party with the most votes is over- represented and the party with the least votes does not get representation equal to their vote total.

Bloom County had a panel with the interpretation of the Louie Louie lyrics according to Bill the Cat, GHWBush and Dukakis back in 1988. I would pull it out of my comics collection and post it but I'm still too lazy and somnolent right now.
