Don't even want to read the entire article.

He was just doing what future commissars of language will be doing. In that respect, he's a visionary.

LOL! Why politicians pose for photos is beyond me. The kid is wearing a grey panther pussy hat, it appears.
To: artichokegrower
Sorry sweetie you don’t get to decide. The language will not accommodate insanity in any form
Notice he headed south. He was going to his motherland
Lordy how I hate the left
