From the Same State that Brought You “The Artist Formerly Known as Prince” . . .

A town in Minnesota has a new mayor. The town of Cormorant, to be precise.

Their new mayor is a bit, well, different.  He goes by only one name. That name? “Duke”.

No, it’s not really odd for him to have only one name.. The new mayor is a dog.

Literally.

I’m not joking.

Hey, first the “good voters” of Minnesota elected Jesse Ventura as governor. Then they elected Al “Felons’ Choice” Franken to the US Senate. So why wouldn’t they elect a damn dog to public office?

I couldn’t find out if Duke’s coat is considered “yellow”, or if he ran as a Democrat.  But both of those being true would indeed be apropos – then he’d truly be a “yellow-dog Democrat.”  (smile)

    I really have no objection to this, unlike most politicians when he makes a mess you could rub his nose in it.

    So what’s the problem? Considering the state of the state that the Demonrats and RINOs have left things in, I’m sure that Duke couldn’t do any worse.

    Probably the smartest thing politically anyone in that state has done for years…

    This won’t be the first elected official to: take frequent naps during the day; urinate everywhere without regard for others; hump the legs of every passing female; and lick his testicles just be he can!

    Just sayin’!

    1. See, there is a good candidate elected and you have to go an compare him to Bill Clinton…

    Duke looks like a Great Pyrenees or maybe a GP mix. Probably a coalition fellow. I’m sure he can look at both sides of the coin and express his opinions by weeing on things or people he disagrees with.

    I’d say this represents progress for Minnesota.

      Given the other two Minnesota “winners” I noted in the article above, MrBill – you could well be right.

      And that’s a damn shame.

    Ol’Duke better be careful if he ever attends a White House reception for municipal officials. obamao might set his sights on Mayor Pooch and serve up Duke as the main entree at the White House dinner table that evening…

    A crotchsniffing politician that has the ultimate cover. I wonder what Bite-me is thinking about right now…hmmm, maybe if I wear a dog suit….
