YOU SHOULD KNOW IT TOOK SENATOR STUART SMALLEY A LOT OF CORRUPTION TO STOP BEING AN UNFUNNY COMEDIAN AND START BEING AN UNFUNNY SENATOR: You’re not going to dislodge him that easily, America.  Do you think votes found in the trunk of cars made themselves up?  And after all this, you didn’t think he was going to grope a few women?  Ah!  You’re naive.  What’s a woman, when you’ve raped congressional elections?  Al Franken: Hanging on Like a Stubborn Case of the Clap… For Now.

SO WALKING THE SEA OF CLOUDS BY GREY RINEHART:  Got a great review.

“Although as entertaining as some of Heinlein’s early fiction, it is not Heinlein, despite many Heinlein tropes. It seems closer to the type of fiction Jerry Pournelle wrote in the 1960s and 1970s.
