Kevin McCarthy got what he wanted last night….but at what cost?
In a stunning concession to ultra-conservative Republicans, McCarthy allowed a team of urgent-care surgeons to remove his “man parts” in exchange for the crucial votes he needed.
The 57-year-old Republican was philosophical about the sacrifice: “Let’s be honest. I was willing to do anything to become Speaker of the House, and those bastards knew it. I did what I had to do. The toughest part was telling my wife Judy, but she took the news much better than I had expected. And I must confess: the extra room I now have in my boxer shorts is a real plus!”
Well, this certainly is a timely post!
