I never give much thought to Halloween but I am a proud member of CCLAAP! I am sooo looking forward to next Sunday when we can go vote and send that creepshow JDV and the orange menace (I'm trying to behave myself here) to oblivion. Onward! Forward! Outlook creates outcome, I always say.

Why perpetuate this awful phraseology?

It’s satire.

This childless, catless woman enjoyed your article. JDV is a piece of s**t. Everyone needs to get out & vote to make sure he & Mr. Orange Head don't succeed in their election endeavor. Happy Halloween!

Dottie, yes. Everyone needs to vote--whatever party they belong to. Happy Halloween to you too!

Loved, loved, loved your article (and I’m not even a childless cat lady. Just a cat lady, period). Forwarding to all my delightful gay friends.

Well said / written As a Canadian (married and childless) we shake our head in disbelief as to what divisive comments are spewed by politicians. Mind you, some of the politicians over here are not much better

That has to be the strangest essay I've ever read. Doesn't make it bad, just strange. Reminds me of "Canticle for Leibowitz". Someone is going to find this in a hundred years and spend the rest of their life trying to figure out what it all meant. Truly an essay for our time but only for our time.

Loved reading that David. I must get those treats ready. Salutations from one childless dog lady to a cat-lovin’ dame.
