Gentle Readers . . . and Maxwell,
I have a great photo for you today.
In this early photo of J.D. Vance, in addition to learning he doesn't have a neck, we see the beginnings of a drag queen.
This is a man who wants to come out of the closet. Or maybe he was starting to transition.
We certainly know now why he grows a beard.
It's too bad he repressed his true self. He could have been a much nicer guy. Maybe he did it because a gay man wouldn't be accepted in his Appalachian hometown.
Except I've heard and read that he didn't really grow up in Appalachia. Does anyone know if that's true?
Infinities of love,
Janie Junebug
Your northern neighbours, for the most part, are fervently wishing and hoping that Kamala and Tim will vanquish the orange monster and his cohorts!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Debbie, and the rest of our northern neighbors who have been sympathetic to our plight.
DeleteGood (great) one!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Anonymous.
DeleteI heard JDs maternal grandparents were from Kentucky and moved to a small town in Ohio and that is where he grew up. But it is hard, I'm sure, to track a guy who's changed his name several times. ;)
ReplyDeleteLOVE Harris and Walz!! :) :)
I just looked it up. Snopes says: "Vance did not grow up in Appalachia, but in suburban Ohio, in a house in a neighborhood considered "middle class" at the time he was growing up."
DeleteWhat a cute political cartoon of Walz and his little piggy! . . . hmmm, that doesn't sound quite right, does it?
ReplyDeleteHahahahahaha! Welcome back, Debra!
DeleteThey don’t come much creepier than J.D. Vance. I think we are all rooting for Kamala and Tim. I know I am.
ReplyDeleteThank you, my Canadian friend.
DeleteHe looks to me like he hasn't missed a cup of gravy......
ReplyDeleteNow that made me laugh, Mads.
DeleteI've heard JD's "story" about his upbringing is largely untrue but then is it a surprise that a Republican lied???
ReplyDeletexoxo
PS That Guyliner is laid on thick!
His story earned him some bucks, I'm sure, what with the book selling well and then movie rights, so he had a financial interest in inventing a background.
DeleteI love them both. They have given me hope that they will be the ones to beat the orange menace in November. I hope that they beat him so resoundingly that tRump can't claim that there was voter fraud.
ReplyDeleteI want a landslide!
DeleteAs I recall he grew up in southern Ohio, near the Kentucky border, but his grandparents lived in Kentucky and he spent a lot of time there. He IS awfully made-up in that photo, but if it's a still from a TV appearance it could be TV makeup. (I'm just giving him the benefit of the doubt. I'm NOT voting for him!)
ReplyDeleteMaybe it was a TV appearance, but the makeup "artist" was pretty heavy handed.
DeleteHarris and Walz seem like an amazing pairing!
ReplyDeleteI love them together and I look forward to voting for Harris and Walz!
DeleteIs there something wrong with me that I don't like or believe politicians? Any and all of them, mind you. So, no cheers, but I vote for the lesser yuckier with you
