Big girls don't cry, even when they slam violently headfirst into a glass wall of their own limitations ... but wait, look up there -- why, it's the Great G.O.P. Golf Cart in the Sky, and it's coming to rescue us from those nasty Young Democrats!"
"It's about time," sniffed Little Miss People. "I need help to censor those uppity Baylorites!"
"Well, tadpole, just don't forget people like me, who've devoted our lives to tireless research, and filling those matchboxes with conspiratorial gibberish so your generation can remain mired in backwardness," cooed Auntie $$$$$$.
"Look, here she comes ... nice pantsuit!"
I hear the axe grinding.....
