Martian Pol Makes Massive Misstep.

I haven't written about Florida's Martian governor lately. Maybe because he's become so insignificant and will soon be replaced by Charlie Crist. But Rick Scott's latest misstep was so funny, I have to mention it. It seems he went to a senior center in Boca Raton, confident that he could amass horror stories about Obamacare. Yet all but one resident expressed their satisfaction with the new health care law. So poor bullet- and empty-head Rick had to leave with his already hidden reptilian Martian tail even more between his legs. It won't be long now before he heads up to Cape Canaveral asking if he can hitch a ride home if there is another mission to Mars.

How did such a horrible thing happen?

I have nothing trenchant to say about this creature. But he is so repulsive, dishonest, slimy, unctuous and inhuman, I think he should be dragged out for viewing every now and then like an unusual tumor in a bottle a medical school.

It could happen.

I've never been one to believe in aliens from outer space. I mean it's absurd to think that some extra terrestrial life force could land on Earth and wreak havoc. Wouldn't we be able to recognize it right away? For starters it wouldn't have human feelings so it would probably give itself away by acts of cold inhumanity or sheer destructiveness. And even if it didn't, it wouldn't look quite like us, would it? I mean it'd probably have some kind of creepy features, too tall or lifeless eyes or no hair or far too many teeth, something like that. Not that it would ever happen, but if it did—and that kind of creature ever showed up—I would hope that the people of Earth would banish it as soon as possible before it prepared the path for even more such horrors.
