   Sort-of. When Tyler ascended to the presidency, he insisted that the words of the constitution didn’t mean what they say—viz., that in the case of the death or incapacity of the president, the Veep assumes the duties of the president. This arguably is couched that way to allow for the possibility of the temporary incapacity of the president. But Tyler insisted on being sworn in just as if he had been elected to the office.

   Puts one in mind of the Biblical Inerrancy crowd, which seem to believe that a little editing is necessary to vouchsafe inerrancy, such as saying that one of the discrepant genealogies of Joseph (!) given in Matthew and Luke is actually Mary’s genealogy, even though the (inerrant) text, dictated by God himself, says “Joseph”.

   I remember the infamous (and fictitious) “missile gap”. Also the fact that a good part of Saint Ronnie’s heroic “defense buildup” was already in the pipeline when Pres. Carter left office.

   Objection to letting people be what they are is much more a feature of (some) Publican thinking, isn’t it, Steve? Folks like Ron DeSantis and all the little DeSantisses in the Florida legislature seem to have a lot of ideas about what people in a free society can and can’t do, say, think. . . . It’s a good thing that (for now) there’s no way for Publicans to tune in on guys’ mastʋrbation fantasies.

   You have a funny idea of “doing very well”, unless of course you’re being sour-castic.

   The first panel is enigmatic. House . . . fence . . . with dark spot . . . Horace walks up to it and walks away wearing . . . shorts??

    Some movies leave a lasting impression, like a wallpaper pattern that keeps showing through the paint.
