That damned Answer

What's Mallard raving about today?

Fathers

Leave it to Mallard to make a political point out of Father's Day. Also, leave it to Mallard to cite a government child welfare site when criticizing the government.

But, beyond all that...what is your suggestion when the child does not have a Dad who loves and cares for him/her, Mallard?

According to Republican doctrine, exemplified by Representative Ryan's budget plan, your plan appears to be: fuck them and cut all funding to help them so billionaires can keep more of their money.

But, perhaps I am missing a nuance somewhere.

Using the occasion of Father's Day as a vehicle for bitching about government programs.

Not quite as morally depraved as pretending to care about our soldiers once or twice a year while continually shilling for the administration that was sending them to their deaths, but it's close.

Abandoned as an egg. Found among empty liquor boxes in an alley. Raised by winos. Yeah, there's a lot of hurt on Father's Day, right Mallard?

So...Fathers Day: Men are great! Mothers Day: Kitten gives his mom a dead rat he found in a sump pump. Why, a negative person might detect misogyny in that! I could mention that the father of my best friend's daughter was an abusive asshole and my proudest moment was successfully getting them away from him, but I guess that would make me a male feminazi.

Also, you can tell they're Vietnamese because their skin is ash gray. Whatever, Brucie. Go and drink your fathers day gift.
