Doc Holiday or Hillary Clinton? America's Fate Lies in Balance

SJ Reidhead (Cindy), who does the glorious Pink Flamingo website (see blogroll), has raised an entirely new possibity in the Presidential sweepstakes: her cat, Doc Holiday., apparently a registered Independent. One of her other cats, GeorgieW, passed away and is not eligible for the presidency, except perhaps in Mayor Richard Daley, Jr.'s Chicago. In any case, I urge you to visit Cindy's new blog: http://docholidayforpresident.blogspot.com/. The original Doc Holiday is responsible for an important political principle: if your opponents never see your back, they're much less likely to stab or shoot you there. Would that Alberto Gonzalez had heeded that advice.

Note: We in the Maloney Family have two cats: Larry Bird and Tigger Edward. Larry Bird, named after the basketball star of yesteryear, is 20 years old, which means Guinness Book status may be in his future. He's in good health. He eats three hours per day (mainly shrimp and other delicacies that are nearly unaffordable) and sleeps 20. The rest of the time he seems to spend reading an ancient history text.

I'll try to put up a picture of Larry, who mostly shuns publicity, later today.
