Chewiest question of the afternoon:
With fat, drooling Laura Richardson having swiftly cemented her top-tier Washington reputation as one of the slimiest members of the House of Representatives, where could a gutter girl turn to have her garbage behavior publicly scrubbed clean?
Why not try the beacon of race, gender and class bigotry, the Los Angeles Titanic, and one of its oldest, meanest, most hateful left-wing reporters, Jean (Ah Hate Normal People and Ah Hate Those Who Don’t) Merl?
When the lowly U.S. Rep. Richardson (D-Long Beach) was reprimanded the other day by her 334 colleagues – for grossly and repeatedly abusing her staff among other unethical failings – it was just the ninth time in history a devious member’s anti-social behavior has warranted being publicly called out.
Perhaps there is a character correlation between the two girls. Ms. Merl seethes each time she is assigned to write about normal politicians. Ms. Richardson suffers an ethical attack when she is forced to interact with normal people.
Two Stale Peas in a Smelly Pod
As a sympathetic well left of center liberal, Ms. Merl finds it irresistibly tempting to align herself with scoundrels, Ms. Richardson being only the most recent example in this morning’s edition.
With typically biased blindness, the tasteless Ms. Merl further varnished her negative journalistic credentials by deftly avoiding the most arcane criticism of the disgusting congresswoman.
In all of Los Angeles and Washington, the cerebrally indigent Ms. Merl could not find one person – this side of Weight Watchers – to fault the abysmal conduct.
For an opening observation, a tone-setter, Ms. Merl turns to an ex-employee. He portrays Ms. Richardson as Joan of Arc, possibly fearing that if he didn’t, Ms. Richardson would send two thugs named Mack and Truck to his home tonight.
Douse the Lights. Fast.
Next Ms. Merl quotes Ms. Dim Bulb, an attorney, as she was climbing out of the shallow end of an empty baby pool. Ms. Dim Bulb, who thinks astute is something smart people sup for breakfast, said:
“We go back many years, and I think she has done a good job.”
This babe should be a scream in the courtroom.
Determined not to jeopardize her image as the dumbest black attorney west of Cairo, Ms. Dim Bulb shrewdly added:
“I’m an African American, and I’d like us to keep our numbers in Congress.”
What a beautifully motivated tree stump she is.
As you swallow hard, dear reader, may you wonder no longer why the good guys nationwide in politics are scurrying to pass voter ID laws.
