When a politician accuses another politician of 'politicizing' 
something, like, for instance, the Capitol Hill Insurrection,
the rational response is to stop thinking and start throwing
rotten tomatoes.

Donald Trump Sez:  "There may be somebody with 
tomatoes in the audience. So if you see somebody getting

Andrew Alemao National Monument
Andrew Alemao assures us that no good
tomatoes were harmed, only rotten ones,
 when he hurled them at Donald Trump.
Maybe we should erect a monument to Andrew Alemao, 
the anti-Trump tomato thrower, like they did for Muntadhir 
al-Zaidi, the Iraqi journalist who threw his shoes at Dubya.

What to Do When Killer Tomatoes Attack

Economist Tyler Cowen writes: "We all overinvest in 
non-diversified mood affiliation portfolios." That's his
way of saying, "We're all biased."  Fifty years ago, it was 
called 'Selective Exposure'. More recently, it was called 
'Confirmation Bias'. Tyler Cowen calls it 'Mood Affiliation'. 
Same concept, different terminology. Reminds me of 
the Gershwin tune: 
"You like potato and I like potahto,
You like tomato and I like tomahto,
Potato, potahto, tomato, tomahto!
Let's call the whole thing off!"

"When I was growing up in central California, we used
 to hire 50 to 60 wetbacks to pick tomatoes.  And when
 I say 'wetbacks', I mean no disrespect:  they were 
honest, hard-working wetbacks.”

Fearguth's Rules of Order #47
If you ask an orangutan what it thinks about a
tomato while it has one on the tip of its tongue,
expect a different answer when it doesn't.
