"If you give him an enema, he can be buried in a shoe box."
IHLRPD: Alan Simpson (of Simpson-Bowles plan) on Ted Cruz:
"If you give him an enema, he can be buried in a shoe box." Alex "There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." -- Isaac Asimov |

I've always hated Simpson, but that is good.

Was in DC briefly during that hearing
Have the *Koppel/Nightline tape + recap. Simpson has sucked for enough years that his ∫ [stupid cant] ● dt == may exceed the total-BS amassed thus far by the young Pretender. Was enroute to FL; stopped S. of DC and watched his late-night summary; think it''s the only such I ever actually purchased from a $Meeja Corp. It's also a necessary (and sufficient) case for deciding just Which of the pair? was/IS the perp. (Had decided earlier that, no-Way could I land a seat in the hearing room, so why not just evade the angst of trying.) Males.. seem to have come a ways since the naked-Peacock WE'RE BIGGER! displays of this hearing: I'd say ... +50 or 60 microns (?) |

That's from a very old joke about Texans.

Not, surprised.
I Googled looking for a link to the citation and found Simpson saying the same last November about Trump. Must be part of his "shtick".
