Shaggy dog story

 Shaggy dog story 

Sundstrøm’s brother has written a letter to the editor. In it he catalogs the epithets members of his own party, allies, have used to label the president - “bloviating ignoramus” (George Will), “moron” (Rex Tillerson), “[engaging in intercourse] idiot” (Rupert Murdoch), “pathological liar” (Ted Cruz), “dumb as [excrement]” (Gary Cohn), a “cancer on conservatism” (Rick Perry). Then he suggests that name-calling is both juvenile and unhelpful, even when it is accurate.

     And there the letter ends.

Uncle Albert pointed it out to me - on his phone. “The rare man that knows where to stop,” he said: “in mediis rebus.

     “Unlike yesterday’s guest preacher,” he said.

     I said, “I thought you said of him he never should have started.”
