Godzilla of the White House

 

Excerpt

 

Their excuses for Trump’s actions had the character of Freud’s famous story of the man accused by his neighbour of having returned a borrowed kettle in a damaged condition: I returned the kettle undamaged; it was already damaged when I borrowed it; I never borrowed it in the first place. Indeed, lawmakers who at first acknowledged an improper quid pro quo but insisted that it did not constitute an impeachable offence, quickly backed off from that heresy. Suddenly the story was, “There was no quid pro quo!” – or, rather, “Of course there was a quid pro quo, but it was completely proper, even laudable!” Or simply, “I’m not even going to discuss what the President did because this whole impeachment thing is a partisan travesty”.

Swing the lead

 

 

Pamianthe-peruviana_2020-2Do you dislike being all alone?
Should you take your shoes off at home ?
What is the contention in a bone?
Does your shampoo  produce  excessive foam?

Do you like to kiss your cat  at night?
Have you ever seen a golden light?
Do mosquitos love us when they bite?
What is more important than insight?

Do you read  a book or swing the lead?
Do you like to charm your  friend in bed?
Do you   remember what your Mother said?
Why are wizards mentioned when they’re dead?

The cat was killed by  curiousity
I wish he’d kepy a diary for me
