Red State
As the pollsters got off the plane to take the measure of a particular southern state, they were pretty well convinced it was going to be a red state . . .
Oh Deer!
Ida, on hearing that the U S would open an embassy in Havana, applied for a job as a diplomat, but was told that the probable response to meeting her would be “Oh Deer,” and that didn’t translate well into Cuban Spanish, possibly causing uncomfortable moments. The State Department suggested she should apply at Interior, where her “Oh Deer” could go quite well with the news of shrinking budgets for Interior to cover shortfalls for the Affordable Care Act.
The Red Door
When choosing his political agenda, Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin had clearly chosen the red door. He wondered, though, what former Senator Joe McCarthy (the “Red Hunter”) would have thought of his choice . . .
Not a Burning Bush
In spite of it seeming to be a burning bush, Michael knew it was just a plant flaring, and finally convinced his wife he didn’t have to lead anyone out of Texas. Actually, according to Ted Cruz, Rush Limbaugh, and Hannity, he should be leading people from California, NY NY and Chicago to Texas . . .
