Schaity Suns as Biden Bonks

This is the time of year when the IAFF Executive Board, ruled by president-for-life Harold Schaitberger, decamps to sunny South Florida for what is billed as a week of busy meetings.

No one buys it, least of all they.

It’s just fun in the sun at the members expense.

The good news? Many are so old that a late night out is the 4:30 special at Kosher Kingdom, Hallandale Beach’s famed Jewish deli.

With this bunch, fresh-faced Edzo Kelly looks like he should be the cabana boy at the Diplomat pool; “Hey, kid — another round of drinks for my friends.”

Speaking of old men, Schaitberger’s hand-picked fellow septuagenarian Joe Biden ain’t exactly knocking them out of the park these days; perhaps he should join Harold for a round of Florida Spring training (if it’s not too late.)

Both have failed to realize that whatever charm they once possessed has long since faded into tacky (and expensive) nest-feathering.

Biden’s just another old white guy, like Chris Dodd; he, too, was drafted by Schaitberger; now they all look in the mirror and realize their time is nearly up.

Presidentially speaking, Schaitberger is at least a six-time serial loser in one way or another.

He lost with Gore, Kerry, and Dodd, dropped Clinton at the altar and passed on the idiot Trump.

Dodd was a pasty white man chosen to thwart the knee-grow Obama; God forbid that an African American should be president.

When Schaitberger picks presidential candidates the IAFF would do well to choose anyone else because they would have a better chance of winning.

The upcoming IAFF Legislative Conference in Washington, D.C. should be interesting; perhaps they can turn it into a CPR refresher using Joe Biden mannequins.

But this last part you couldn’t make up.

Schaitberger showed his true self when he made what he thought was the safe decision to back Dodd over Obama, a.k.a. sugar over chocolate.

This time, Schaitberger picked another old white guy, Biden, who is falling so fast that he needs Blacks in the South Carolina primary to salvage his candidacy for him.

That’s right, Schaitberger, an old white guy’s best friend, needs Black America to give him a win.

Yes indeed, politics do make for some strange bedfellows.

Pass the sun block, please.
