Thought For The Day

Their Old Kentucky Home

August 20, 2022

Kentucky senator and WAP (White-Ass Pussy) Rand Paul is occasionally mentioned in this space. First, we apologize for this. Senator Paul himself should apologize for ever opening the exhaust hole under his nose.

The junior GOPP (Grand Old Putin Party) senator from the state that continues to bring us Bitch McConnell, attempted to school Secretary of State Antony Blinken on reasons we should not be interfering with the malignant mischief of Vladimir Putin. Paul attempted to justify Putin’s brutal bludgeoning of Ukraine by proclaiming, “You could also argue the countries they attacked were part of Russia. Were part of the Soviet Union.” Well, apparently he could argue that.

Someone should remind the bonehead from the Bluegrass State that Kentucky was home to tribes from five different culture groups – Iroquoian, Sioux, Algonquian, Muskogean and Yuchi. None of these peoples invited Paul’s pasty-faced predecessors to evict them. So maybe he should let them do as they please and reclaim what is rightfully theirs.

“Kentucky” comes from the Iroquois word “ken-tah-ten,” whose meanings “land of tomorrow,” “meadow,” “prairie,” and “the river of blood.” So even the state’s name was stolen. And like its original inhabitants, butchered.

To paraphrase the junior senator, after all, you could argue that the state he calls his was part of Pre-Columbian North America. Was part of Native Lands.

Senator Paul might want to STFU.
