“How would you describe a cankle, Mr. Snerdley? Okay. Media Matters, MSNBC, if you’re listening, Bo Snerdley, the official program observer here, thinks the definition of cankles is Hillary Clinton. You stand by that, Snerdley? All right.”
“There’s no rational explanation for liberalism — other than it’s easy. All you have to do is see some suffering and say that you care and think other people should do something about it, and you’re a liberal.”
