...year. In Idaho, McConnell has made it clear he'd prefer embattled Senator Larry Craig - who pled guilty to disorderly conduct after Minneapolis airport police accused him of attempting to solicit gay sex in an airport bathroom - to resign immediately. That would leave a vacancy for Idaho Governor Butch Otter, a Republican, to appoint someone to serve out the last 15 months of Craig's term and preserve the party's incumbent advantage...
...rendering this opacity graphically, as the letters of its title appear on the screen: "I'm he"... "I'm her" ... "I'm here" ... "I'm not here" ... "I'm not there."

It's about a loose community of creatures--cats, a bear, a squirrel, a baby otter, a few robots--who are variously wealthy, clinically depressed, psychotic and gay. It swings, sometimes disconcertingly, from funny to sad and back. In one story arc a wealthy pleasure-loving cat named Ray dies and goes to hell, where he's forced to drive a 1982 Subaru Brat and gets drunk...
