A nicely chilled salted butter on a fresh baguette. I ate the entire thing. I am not proud, but it was delicious.  

Also ice cream.  That nondairy shit does not cut it.  

I am nibbling on a truffled gouda with my wine now,and I endorse this post.

Mmm, cheese and butter.

It’s gonna be weird having feral packs of cows roaming around the US.  Maybe this is the beginning of The Far Side

Like Uncle Joe or not, but credit where credit is due: may we all have partners and friends like Jill Biden and Symone Sanders. Who needs Secret Service when you’ve got those two.

...and today I learned that secret service protection for ex VPOTUSes expires after six months. Cause I would have assumed he’d still have protection. And under no other administration would I wonder if someone might play politics with the approval of protection. 

According to Vice:

I thought they did after the RFK assassination, but you have to win the primary to get the protection?

Question: he’s the former vice president and now pretty much the front-runner for the nomination.  Where’s the Secret Service?

Agreed--Sanders and Biden should both get Secret Service protection at this point.

Can you imagine the uproar if he had touched a woman no matter what the circumstances? His political career would have been over. 

Lady Roosevelt was a one-in-a-million, gun-toting, KKK-fighting bad ass in her day.

Its kind of astonishing that there is no security provided. In retrospect someone storming the stage on behalf of No Dairy seems maybe amusing but at the some time could have gone horribly wrong in a country buried in an avalanche of weapons.

There are better examples because I’m not suggesting she run the country like Edith Wilson did, but rather that she fill a gap in his capability (Woodrow was completely incapacitated by his stroke; that situation probably couldn’t happen nowadays), so I suppose two good examples would be Eleanor Roosevelt, who could…

Man, who knew Jill could throw a WWE worthy clothesline?! Ok, not really but I bet she has one in her.

Well there is one golden hope.....getting Biden into the Oval seat and gets Mel out and brings someone in who is actually wanting to be there.

The footage of Jill Biden diving into action is the single greatest thing I’ve seen all day. That woman didn’t skip a beat-the Secret Service should recruit her. 

If Joe Biden is going to be the next president, it’s the presence of Dr Jill Biden on which I can hang my hope. His principal shortcoming is his weak communication skill. Joe is as apt to mess up a sentence or thought as was George W Bush*; Jill is an erudite speaker, who should be deployed at every opportunity.

He and Sanders need secret service protection ASAP!

I feel that she’s not just protecting her husband, but also my right to have cheese and butter.
