Just when you thought the Dems couldn’t get any weirder, they maximize their bizarre factor and go to town.
Their latest cause? Cow rights.
No, really.
Perhaps taking a cue from the clearly batty Oscar acceptance speech of Joaquin Phoenix, three women who left their blouses and bras at home grabbed the microphone at a Nevada Sanders rally on Sunday.
A Sanders event is usually chock full of the ideologically deranged, politically comatose, and those with more than a passing acquaintance with cocoa puffs. But these Bernie fans brought something extra to the festivities.

Upon wrestling the mike away from a not amused Sanders, one of the blouseless trio blurted out, “Bernie, I’m your biggest supporter, and I’m here to ask you to stop propping up the dairy industry and to stop propping up animal agriculture. I believe in you.” Then the other two took the stage and threw sundry liquids around in an odd performance art attempt to agitate the crowd into a pro-bovine frenzy.
The assembled multitude did not seem convinced of the efficacy of the arguments of the three anti-dairy activists, though male members of the audience paid close attention to their body of evidence.
For those of us who live on the Planet Earth and come to public events fully attired, taking part in “animal agriculture” means going to the grocery store to buy some food. It likely has the same meaning to the three scantily clad women in question. For like so many of their ilk, they preach but may not practice.

We now await the public service announcements, college courses, and public television specials on the oppressed victims of the dairy industry and the struggle of cows of color to gain respect in a world run by white milk privilege.
In related news, a major Hollywood studio has announced a fall biopic, to coincide with the November election, that tells the inspirational story of a feminist cow (is that redundant?) who angrily overcame the bigotry of her day and went on to become a business mogul and national icon. The film, “Elsie: One Really Mad Cow Can Make a Difference,” will be released with Bette Midler in the title role.
