The LA Times printed the following piece after Senator Dianne Feinstein, desperate to save her gun control measure, said on the Senate floor “All vets are mentally ill in some way or another and the government should prevent them from owning firearms.” In other words, she insulted all U.S. veterans.

“Frankly, I don’t know what it is about California, but we seem to have a strange urge to elect really obnoxious women to high office. I’m not bragging, you understand, but no other state, including Maine, even comes close. When it comes to sending left-wing dingbats to Washington, we’re Number One. There’s no getting around the fact that the last time anyone say the likes of Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein, Maxine Waters, Kamala Harris, and Nancy Pelosi, they were stirring a cauldron when the curtain went up on “MacBeth.” The five of them are like jackasses who happen to possess the gift of blab. You don’t know if you should condemn them for their stupidity or simply marvel at their ability to form words.” — Columnist Burt Prelutsky
