So where does all of this leave us in terms of McCarthy's qualifications for an official role in our county's preparations for Armageddon? Those qualifications would seem to be:
One: May have threatened to break up school board meeting 20 years ago with shotguns but never did.

Two: Never chopped anybody's finger off with a butcher knife.
Three: Formed an international anti-Semitic hate group and still brags about it on posters for anti-FBI rallies but says he does not understand why anybody thinks he's an anti-Semite.
Four: Is certified by FEMA.
Apparently the county commissioners will vote at their next meeting to abolish the Committee of Whatever to avoid having to talk about McCarthy again. But I wanted to make sure before we dropped it that we all had a good picture of last week's events. And, remember I said I would have a question for you at the end?
From here on out, how reassuring will you find this phrase: "Certified by FEMA"?
