In view of the MAGA criticism of the release of Ms Griner, an allegory:
Sissy and Bubba, walked into a pizza restaurant, took a seat at a booth and were soon asked by a waitress what they'd like.
Bubba said "I'll have a Caesar salad, a 16 ounce Porterhouse and a baked potato with butter and sour cream. The lady would like a salad of artichoke heart and asparagus tips, a cedar planked salmon filet and risotto with wild rice".
Stunned, the waitress looked a round and quietly responded "Sir, this is a pizza place."
"Uh-huh", Bubba agreed.
"Well, all those thing you ordered sound really nice, but none are on the menu", the waitress explained. "Can I bring you something that IS on the menu?"
"Nah, we'd like what I ordered", Bubba persisted.
"I can't bring you that. It's not one of the choices!" the now irritated waitress stated somewhat loudly, glancing toward her boss at the register for support.
"You could give us what we ordered if you were any kind of waitress!" Sissy spat out while pointing a glitter-encrusted claw at the woman.
At this point, the rather large owner/manager stepped in front of his poor employee, sighed and said "That's enough---leave---NOW!"
The couple headed for the door after Bubba loudly told the entire room "This place STINKS! Lots of people---good Americans---say the food will make you sick!"
As the manager closed the door behind them as they left, the folks enjoying slices of his excellent pies gave him a round of applause. He smiled and responded "Ya gotta do what ya gotta do!"
