Today on Lionel - Wednesday May 14th.

WEST VIRGINIA, PURPLE HEARTS, AND A SWEARING NEWSCASTER.  

Talk-show host and columnist Daniel Ruth joins Lionel today. He’ll tell us why Hulk Hogan’s son is serving jail time. Hint: it has something to do with being a redneck boob and injuring an Iraq vet.   

FROM THE ENDLESS CAMPAIGN.

Hillary wins West Virginia, cementing her chances to (maybe) definitely (not) be able to try to win the nomination.  

 

We knew this campaign was ugly, but these racist T-shirts are a new low. Unless you think they’re funny, which you shouldn’t.   

IN THE MÉLANGE.

Should Vets get Purple Hearts for mental or emotional injuries? The Pentagon is considering it.  

  

Veteran local newscaster Sue Simmons swears and gets drunk. We’d sure like to party with her, but will WNBC put up with her “sailor on shore leave” behavior? 

He can’t drink, but he can legislate. Should there be a minimum age requirement to serve in political office? Tell that to this newly elected 19-year old mayor.  

Talk about the worst seat on the plane – imagine being made to sit in the airplane bathroom for an entire 3-hour flight. This young man smells something horrible at Jet Blue.

Sailor Sue and the airwaves blue

Joe from Tampa here, Lionel. First heard you when I was a 1L at Stetson in 1993, then you broke my heart and left town, ya rat basta. But I've loyally followed you all these years.

No. One. Cares. That. She. Cusses. It was a goof, a gaff, a fo-paw (give a 'neck a law degree, he's still a 'neck). It is not any worse than you hear anywhere else. She offended a few geezers who wheezed into their soup bowls at the dinner table, then called the network to complain (as if the producers didn't already see it). I say give her a pass, laugh it off, and tell her the likker is on her the next time we all go drinking together.
