election night (or why I love my mother)



"Don't you vote for that Melancon! You know why"
(My uncle to my mother, his sister)

"Good god, Warren, how long ago was that?"
(my mother)

"That don't matter."

(my uncle)

"All I know is I ain't voting for that David Vitter. He ain't nothing but a Republican asshole, with his prostitutes and all that. I ain't never voted for a Republican and I'm not startin' now."
(My mother.)

(Vitter's opponent, it seems, dated my aunt back in high school.
Hell, who knows, if we shake the family tree hard enough maybe one of my cousins was one of Vitter's prostitutes too)

But what I love about the Vittle's, er ah, I mean Vitters is that when he got on TV to confess about getting it on with a whore, there was his wife, dress like a whore in all that leopard. That was a sublime, yet magical moment in the history of American politics!

I went to high school with David Vitter, we have the same first and middle names and last initial. Who knew he'd turn out like this when everyone thought I was the weird one! Ha! Go Stormy Daniels!!!
