Weeping, Whooping Whoopi

Leftists-liberals-progressives are a spoiled bunch.

They’re not necessarily spoiled as in the old joke in which a young girl passes by a couple of old dudes and one says, “That’s my granddaughter” and the other asks, “Is she spoiled?” and the first old dude says, “Nah, she just smells that way” but leftists-liberals-progressives are nonetheless spoiled.
