Lots of Heat...

Suspect you couldn't have missed Friday's Fracas in Dodge City. 

Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelenskyy (The 'extra Y' does not, as Donald Trump believes, stand for "Why Don't You Surrender?"), whose nation, Ukraine, was invaded by Putin's Russia a skosh over three years ago, dared to complain while being extorted by that well-known tag-team of Lower-Egg-Price-Lovers elected last November to the offices of President and Vice-President of the United States. 

What a cur! He had the temerity to show up in the clothes he had been wearing for most of every second of every minute of the last three years while his nation has been fighting for its life against the Russian Bear. 

No one in the history of our country, as the Elegiac Hillbilly found so amusing, has ever disrespected the Oval Office's dress code. Well, maybe not.

What is it that's posted in nearly every store across our great nation? "No Shirt, No Shoes, No Obsequiousness, No Media Opportunity!" Now, I guess we're supposed to add suit to that list.

What I watched (but who can believe their eyes these days?) was a mugging in broad daylight. And shame on those of us who averted our eyes, worked overtime to create alibis masquerading as excuses, and by our silence, consented. 

The people of Ukraine deserve to live in peace in their own country, their entire country, not a rump state, dismembered and being stripped for parts by a rapacious pair of grifters allied with a murderer.
