Yes, The Rent is Too Damn High


The gubernatorial race in California now has a run for its money.  If you thought the lunacy between Meg Whitman and Jerry Brown has been over the top, you haven't seen the future SNL sketch that was the debate in NY between the knuckleheads running for Governor of the Empire State.

It's bad enough that the two legitimate candidates are a mess.  Republican entrepreneur Carl Palladino can't stop making one homophobic remark after another.  I hope he's not expecting to carry the Greenwich Village district.  Meanwhile, there's Andrew of the Cuomo Family which, when not battling the Corleones and the Barzinis for control of the docks, likes to offer up inept candidates to run for public office. 

To make matters worse, somebody decided to take ninety minutes of broadcast time the other night and present a debate between all the folks running for Governor.  This was the equivalent of shining a flashlight into a musty closet.  Every insect known to God appeared for their fifteen minutes of stardom. 

Take, for instance, the screwball pictured above.  Jimmy McMillan.  Of the "Rent Is Too Damn High" party.  Running on the platform stating that...the rent is too damn high.

But, let's just have Jimmy speak for himself.



The sad thing?  This guy will probably get several thousand votes on Election Day.

Meanwhile, there are reports that this lunatic hasn't paid his own rent in years.

Boy, am I glad I moved!

Dinner last night:  Beef stroganoff.

I love that guy. And having just received a rent hike, I agree: "The rent is too damn high!" Will he fly out and talk to my landlord?

Love the Buffalo Bill look.
