If this isn’t a metaphor for today’s GOP, I don’t know what is.
Balls are not allowed at next week’s GOP convention where the politicians who haven’t had the balls to stand up to Little Fingers Don until now will nominate him to be their candidate for President of the FUCKING UNITED STATES!

Of course, in another expected metaphor, these same folks responded to the latest mass shooting of police officers in Dallas by adding language stating opposition to restricting magazine capacity & banning AR-15 rifles. There was no debate.
Here. I’ll help you pack. Other things that you can’t bring to the GOP convention (since I know you’re going) include: knives of all sorts, lumber, coolers and cots. Num chucks have to be left in the hotel room, as do your fireworks.
I did not notice rotten tomatoes on the list, so stock up! There will be a run on them in Cleveland, I’m sure.
But because Ohio is an “open-carry” state, you can bring guns.

No wonder they can’t juggle more than one thing at a time… no balls to practice with…

I can’t help but pay attention though. After this last week of total horror and confusion, I wonder if any leaders will step up to show real strength and well, real leadership. It seems to me we used to have these people around us.

I have a really bad feeling about Ohio next week. Hope I’m wrong. Because the following week, the DNC is too close to my “hood”. ☺

I got an email today informing me that the poetry corner on our public radio station would be pre-empted on 8 days due to coverage of the Republican and Democratic National Conventions. I’m crushed. I really could have used 90 uplifting seconds of poetry each day to balance out the torment of listening to the yapping about the lesser of two evils. My dog has bigger balls than all of them put together. 🙂

That is the way with the GOP. Each one is against all social programs until they need one against abortion until it’s their daughter. While they don’t corner the market on hypocrisy, they are in the running to do just that!

I’m just glad I won’t be anywhere near Cleveland next week. Out here in California, our gun laws are much safer and saner.

Well, at least they’re consistent. This year, Texas is poised to allow open-carry of guns on college campuses. “What’s that, prof? You want to discuss some politics? Fill your hand, you SOB!”
Man, you just couldn’t make this stuff up. 😜

Well, INSIDE the convention center, no knives, guns, num chucks, etc. But outside in protest areas, the law is the law, and gun laws WILL allow protestors to carry their weapons. For real. Cuz that sounds like a good idea.
