All Male, All White. Well, Except For That Lady Who Wants to Assassinate Fidel Castro
.
“Look, I do not have anything against white males. I married one and gave birth to three of them. However, contrary to what they may think, they are not the only humans on earth,” Juanita begins this morning with a line out the door of women getting spiffied-up for the big VFW Holiday Dance tonight.
“Apparently, the only winners in the last election were white males,” she sighs upon discovering that the chairmen of every House committee are white males, except for one.
“It’s kinda dazzling to think that it’s 2010 and apparently we have not come a long way, Baby.”
The sole female’s role is kinda stunning, too. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, the loopy lady from Florida who openly encourages the assassination of Fidel Castro, now chairs the Foreign Affairs Committee. “Oh Good Lord,” Juanita says, “somebody give her a row boat and pistol.”
“So,” Juanita says, “once again, the Republican idea of diversity is a tall white guy, a short white guy, a fat white guy, a bald white guy, a …….”
“Yo, Juanita,” Thelma interrupts. “You forgot John Boehner. He’s not white.”
She has a point there.
