The Democrats are going to the dogs – the Blue Dogs, that is. And that’s bad news for both the liberal foxes trying to lead the Dems and the rabid dogs of the far right nipping at the heels of Republicans.
Don’t get me wrong. I think foxes are interesting to watch. We’ve got a few in our backyard that sit under the deck or in the azalea bushes waiting for a chance to ambush the squirrels fattening themselves at the bird feeder in preparation for winter. That’s what foxes do. They survive by preying on small, unsuspecting animals. They’re also known for stealing all the eggs from the henhouse, destroying the hope of future generations.
Rabid dogs can be equally dangerous. Driven by unreason, they act irrationally, spreading their deadly disease as they lash out in crazed hate.
Yes, it is good to see the Blue Dogs baring their teeth as they stand up to guard the henhouse from the foxes in their own party. Now, we need some “Red Dogs” to serve as the bark of reason and fend off the rabid dogs on the Republican side.
Hey, that could be my campaign slogan: Elect Joey, the bark of reason.
