Philippe & Jorge’s Cool, Cool World: Dispatches from the Boom Boom Room: Your superior correspondents laugh to keep from crying

In the Worst Way It is quite embarrassing to admit, but P&J turned off the televised Senate Judicial Committee’s flamboyant hearings this week. Brett Kavanaugh is a mildly qualified GOP arse-licker designated to be a right wing plant in the Supreme Court. But P&J fear Kavanaugh as much as we did current Supreme Court Chief Justice John […]

Phillipe & Jorge’s Cool, Cool World: Just Deserts — Your superior correspondents realize you’re not sending us your best

You Get What You Deserve Could there be anything more dispiriting than the results of the gubernatorial primaries last week? Now we have the choice –­ once again — between the jumped-up, overly ambitious Dem Gigi Raimondo, who would eagerly push either Sheldon Whitehouse or Jack Reed in front of a speeding train to be able to […]

Phillipe & Jorge’s Cool, Cool World: She’s Flying at Half Mast

Negative Space The old expression “conspicuous by its absence” was on display last week thanks to the separate lame and disgraceful efforts of President Pussy-Grabber and Providence Bishop Tommy Tobin. Our mentally ill, hypersensitive, congenital liar-in-chief, with all the morals, ethics and respect for the law of a career criminal, embarrassed himself — and the nation — […]

Philippe & Jorge’s Cool, Cool World: Go, Space Force!

Space Cadet Now that we have firmly established that President Big Baby is a delusional, autocrat-worshipping, misogynist and racist who’s lying if his lips are moving, here comes another splendid idea from the Fantasyland at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue: Space Force! As is the case with anything the Orange Orangutan touches, it required a tweet from […]

Phillipe & Jorge’s Cool, Cool World: Leader of the Free World … for Me to Poop On!

Trump, the Insult Dog Every day, Phillipe and Jorge awaken in hopes that America and President Pussy-Grabber will have finally returned to sanity. (Well, in the frothing Orange Orangutan’s case, he may not have been sane to begin with.) Call us cock-eyed optimists, but we always look for the positive side of things. Unfortunately, in […]

Phillipe & Jorge’s Cool, Cool World

Trillo’s Comedy Campaign Perhaps the funniest political story of the past few weeks was about independent candidate for Vo Dilun governor, Joe Trillo’s, 65-foot boat, the Lady M, nearly crashing into the beach in Charlestown. Funny, because the boat featured a giant Trillo for Governor banner and was blaring what is described as “patriotic music.” Does […]

Phillipe & Jorge’s Cool, Cool World: In Which Your Superior Correspondents Wonder What This World Is Coming To

As the Horror Hits Closer to Home When yet another man with a gun entered the office of the Capital Gazette newspaper in Annapolis, Maryland, on Thursday, June 28, you can bet all those who work in the newspaper business (from large dailies to small alt papers like us) were horrified, if not terrified. Of course, the general public […]

Phillipe & Jorge’s Cool, Cool World

Miss Management The British have a phrase about general ineptitude, that “they couldn’t organize a piss-up in a brewery.” It appears the Raimondo administration is falling into that category. We have been treated to “Cooler and Warmer” and the UHIP debacle. Now it is revealed that because of missed deadlines for responding to legal demands, […]

Phillipe & Jorge’s Cool, Cool World: Trouble in DC, Sartorial Commands and All Mobbed Up

Lowering the Bar Phillipe and Jorge were delighted to have some chinwag with our old friends US Senators Jack Reed and Sheldon Whitehouse at the Wild and Scenic Rivers media event last week. Both looked mahvelous, but that’s where the good news ends. Jack and Sheldon gave virtually the same sense of despondency over what […]
