  • That is the problem with everything. They try and make it better without realizing the old is fine.

Oh the inhumanity.

Staffers working for Kamala Harris are revolting over the inferior quality of lunches on Air Force Two, the vice president's plane.

It comes after news emerged that their counterparts in the president's office, who travel on Air Force One, are served filet mignon and other hot delicacies on gold-rimmed plates, accompanied by cold beers.

Ms Harris's staff say they get soggy sandwiches in brown paper bags - and no booze.

“It’s a little more Southwest Airlines than Four Seasons,” a former staffer told Politico, describing it as “horrible slop.”

Some apparently don't eat the meals at all. It's a source of discontent for some of her aides who are required to travel frequently.

That almost makes me tear up.
Brothers, sisters, come on down to that river
Guaranteed you'll never be the same
There's a fountain flowing from the heart of the Savior
Bring your sins and all your guilty stains
Let that river of life wash it all away

At the very worst, they're getting the same kind of boxed lunches routinely provided to military and other government personnel who fly on government airplanes.  However, I notice they don't appear to be demanding better food for all the hoi polloi out there.

Reminds me of a story my dad used to tell.

A guy would come into the lunchroom every day, pull out a sandwich and declare (in disgust) "peanut butter" and put it back.

Finally, someone asked him, why don't you have your wife fix you something else?

My wife? I fix my own lunch.
She asked me name my foe then. I said the need within some men to fight and kill their brothers without thought of Love or God. Ken Hensley

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Serve 'em peanuts. Make them pay for the drinks.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
