A Cat Named Limberbutt McCubbins Is Running For President! He's A Demo-Cat.

A cat named Limberbutt McCubbins is running for president. He's filed his paperwork with the Federal Election Commission and everything.

What sets McCubbins apart from the other 2016 hopefuls isn't merely that he's a 5-year-old neutered rescue kitty, though that is certainly one notable difference.

McCubbins is registered as a Democrat, but his campaign literature describes him as a "Demo-cat."...

"We are not taking donations at this time," says 17-year-old Isaac Weiss, one of the cat's two campaign managers. "If we later decided to take them, they will most likely be forwarded to the Humane Society or another organization for animals."

Running mate for Bernie?

Life is just not the same without an occasional weekend afternoon swilling Corona and nibbling on poke on opihi's lanai!

(for you terminal mainlanders, opihimoimoi used to host our tiny Hawai'i meetups at his house right on Kane'ohe Bay; poke (POH-kay) is the local style of marinated sushi.)
