The 2016 election must be getting close. All the Democrats are shouting “squirrel.”

The United States needs to kick all the grey states out of the Union. They flew the Confederate Flag.

Hmm...I’m guessing the next move will be for classic rock stations to ban Tom Petty (Rebels), Billy Idol (Rebel Yell), and David Bowie (Rebel, Rebel - he said it twice, that makes it twice as bad!)

There are nutty times we live in, yes?

I don’t think the “R” word should even be used in polite company, because it is offensive.

You have it pegged exactly. It was this way at the end of Clinton’s two terms, too, all the leftists FRANTICALLY trying to get all their pet projects done and/or funded before the end comes.
