"Jeff" Sessions, US attorney general who belittled the state of Hawaii and then tried to explain his comments away as a "joke," is today celebrating Confederate Memorial Day in the great state of Alabama:
State government offices are closed Monday in Mississippi and Alabama for Confederate Memorial Day... to "honor those who served in the confederacy."
I thought pointing out the connection between Sessions and the Confederacy (Jefferson Beauregard Sessions) might shed some light on the person who implied that those of us "sitting on an island in the Pacific" are somehow out of touch with present day reality. Perhaps he should have looked in the mirror this morning, to see how in touch he is with present day reality as he celebrates a war lost over 150 years ago.
But no, let's insult Hawaii, it's judges, and it's residents instead.
On the fifth day - the scientists who studied the rivers - were forbidden to speak - or to study the rivers. -Jane Hirshfield's poem on creation
