Can You Tell Me How To Get To Distraction Street?

Is it important what Bert and Ernie are "saying"?

Shouldn't we keep our eyes on what is being done, and who is giving the orders?

When Newsweek is feigning outrage over remarks of the Pennsylvania Avenue muppet, that's a clear signal that he will soon be replaced. Who's next? Kamala The Grouch? Or will they move straight to Miss Michelle? Gavin Newsom as Elmo?

President Joe Biden sparked outrage during his visit to Maui after making a joke that appeared to compare the deadly wildfires on the Hawaii island with almost losing his '67 Corvette.

During a speech to the crowd gathered in Lahaina, the president said he knew how it felt to lose a home.

"I don't want to compare difficulties but we have a little sense, Jill and I, of what it's like to lose a home," he said. "Years ago now, 15 years ago, I was in Washington doing Meet the Press. It was a sunny Sunday," he continued.

"Lightning struck at home, on a little lake that's outside of our home—not a lake, a big pond,—and hit a wire that came up underneath our home into the heating ducts and air conditioning ducts," he added.

"To make a long story short, I almost lost my wife, my '67 Corvette, and my cat."

A 2022 article by the Washington Examiner reported that Biden had talked about the fire in his kitchen that year while visiting Colorado after the state was struck by a rare winter wildfire. On that occasion too, the Republican National Committee Twitter account had accused Biden of exaggerating the story, citing an Associated Press report from 2004, seen by Newsweek, that said the fire was a "small" one that was "contained in the kitchen" and was "under control in 20 minutes."
