The world is still safe for fairness.

Devona, I keep thinking of the Bubba character in the Charlaine Harris novels…
The world is still safe as long as no one digs him up and removes the stake.
Let me make this clear: Ann Coulter lacks the wit and charm of Joseph McCarthy. Despite the photograph, I’m certain she’s not McCarthy come back from the grave.
I’m not sure at all that he’s dead. Has he been exhumed? Might he be bagging groceries at the Piggly Wiggly? If, as the B-movie claimed, “They Saved Hitler’s Brain”, perhaps someone saved tailgunner Joe’s, too?
Or is that what is bulging out from Ann Coulter’s throat?
