Buttigieg Tries to Appear More "Moderate" [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 22 Sep 2019 | John Semmens

Angling to position himself as a "moderate" in hopes of garnering the votes of Democrats alarmed by the continuing incoherence of doddering "moderate" former Vice-President Joe Biden, South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg took a swipe at rival candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren's "extremely evasive" stance on her Medicare for all health plan.

"Did you see her on the Colbert show?" the Mayor asked. "When a loyal progressive like Colbert is left mystified by how she plans to pay for this extravaganza everyone should be concerned. It's looking more like her 'plan for that' meme is to promise the undeliverable and obscure the massive costs by simply ignoring them. At least Sen. Sanders admits that his virtually identical plan requires middle-class tax hikes."

In a similar vein, Buttigieg sought to differentiate himself from LBTG extremists by alleging his "disgust with the flagrantly outrageous flaunting of stereotypical 'gay' lifestyles, garish costumes, and clownish antics. It smears us normal gays who want a more traditional life of marriage and children by implying that all gays are self-destructive social misfits."

In related news, Buttigieg worried that "the most tragic outcome stemming from the discovery of more than 2,000 bodies of aborted babies found in the home of Dr. Ulrich Klopfer after his recent death would be for women to alter their decision to abort an unwanted child. In the big scheme of things, the idiosyncratic hoarding of fetal remains by Klopfer is a minor concern when juxtaposed to the tremendous health benefits of the procedure."

Oh where, oh where does reality stop and satire begin. We can never tell because so much insanity is real.

The craziness starts with Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s first word of her answers: “So...”

Worthy of today’s “Professors”. :(

I think that there isn’t anything you can say about Butt-plug-plug that could be forced into the realm of satire

Not until sodomy is universal might we see an end to the pro-gay propaganda and maybe not even then.
