Comrade Jack!
Moose and Squirrel blamed for everyting go wrong in Amerika today. Your children no vote. Your children no go to polls and work precincts. Your candidates no get their own petition signatures. When you don't end up on ballot or you lose on election day, who to blame? Moose and Squirrel, dats who. Moose and Squirrel have news for you all: 2020 going out with whimper because none of you do your own dirty work. But Moose and Squirrel have candidate who love getting hands dirty and our candidate planning triumphant return very very soon. And when our candidate does return, our candidate will be sure to file papers with Board of Elections proudly proclaim Moose and Squirrel as advisors. Then you all know the true value of Moose and Squirrel. Polish printer of Northwest? He is puny clown that know nothing but to bait Irish women to run. He is also the one who is sending Mr. Jett and other "field workers" to candidates to hustle them for money. Moose and Squirrel never do dat. But Moose and Squirrel likes clean streets, so please keep yard signs in yards and not an abandoned crack houses in Englewood and frontage roads along Dan Ryan and Bishop Ford.
Boris and Natasha were the Russian spies; Moose and Squirrel (Bullwinkle and Rocky) were the ones foiling their nefarious plans. And now for something we hope you really like! :)
This is an ad for an online travel reservation service. Hotels, hostels, apartments, "reasonably priced." Says they'll make your dreams come true!
Maybe Boris posted this to get Moose and Squirrel over there and deal with them.
Is there no end to your talents, Dr. Klumpp? Impressive -- and I mean this in a straightforward way, not the snarky-Internet-sarcastic way....
No no, Google Translate gets the credit for this, not me. Typing in Cyrillic was a new adventure, but just a matter of patience. Will come in handy if Putin ever seizes control of FWIW.
