Alright, so listen up, y’all. We’re gonna talk about this fella, Pete… uh… Boot-edge-edge? Booty-judge? Somethin’ like that. He was on that Fox News channel, the one always blabberin’ on the TV.

Pete Boot-edge-edge on the TV
Yeah, that’s the fella. He was talkin’ and talkin’, like them folks on TV always do. I tell ya, they talk so much, sometimes I just wanna turn the darn thing off and go feed the chickens. But this time, somethin’ caught my ear. They were askin’ him all sorts of questions, you know, the kind that make your head spin.
They kept sayin’ his name, Pete Boot-edge-edge, over and over. I guess that’s how they do things on TV, gotta make sure you remember who they’re talkin’ about. He used to be the mayor of some town, South Bend, Indiana, I think they said. Sounded like a nice place, probably got lots of cornfields.
Now, he’s the Transportation Secretary. That sounds fancy, don’t it? I reckon he’s in charge of all them cars and trucks and trains and such. Probably makes sure the roads ain’t got too many potholes, which is a good thing, ’cause them potholes can really shake your bones loose when you’re drivin’ the pickup to town.
Fox News Askin’ Questions
So, this fella on Fox News, Neil somethin’-or-other, he was askin’ Pete all sorts of questions. And let me tell ya, some of them questions were real doozies. They was askin’ him about that Trump fella, you know, the one with the orange hair.

- They asked if Trump was a “fascist.”
- Now, I ain’t no fancy scholar, but that word sounds mean.
- Sounded like they were tryin’ to get Pete into a corner, make him say somethin’ he didn’t wanna say.
But Pete, he’s a smooth talker, that one. He didn’t get all flustered or nothin’. He just answered them questions, calm as you please. He talked and talked, and I gotta say, he made some sense. Even though I didn’t understand half of what them fancy TV folks were sayin’ half the time.
Trump and Politics
This whole thing with Trump and Pete and Fox News, it just goes to show ya, politics is a messy business. It’s like a bunch of chickens peckin’ at each other in the coop. Everybody’s tryin’ to be the top dog, and they ain’t afraid to ruffle a few feathers to get there.
I tell ya, sometimes I just don’t get it. Why can’t they all just get along? Why can’t they focus on fixin’ the roads and makin’ sure folks got enough to eat? That’s what really matters, not all this bickerin’ and squabblin’.
Transportation and Such
Anyway, back to Pete. Since he’s the Transportation Secretary, I hope he does a good job. We need good roads around here, and them trains need to run on time. It ain’t easy gettin’ around in the country, ya know. Sometimes it feels like you gotta drive a hundred miles just to get a loaf of bread.

I saw on the TV once where they were talkin’ about electric cars. Said they’re gonna save the planet and all that. Well, I don’t know about that. Seems to me like them electric cars ain’t gonna last too long on them dirt roads out here. And where you gonna plug ’em in when you’re out in the middle of nowhere?
Final Thoughts
So, that’s the story of Pete Boot-edge-edge and Fox News. It was kinda interestin’, I guess, for a while there. But then my soap opera came on, and I had to switch the channel. Them soap operas, now those are somethin’ else. Always got some drama goin’ on, folks screamin’ and cryin’ and whatnot. Makes you forget all about them politicians and their fancy talk.
But yeah, Pete Boot-edge-edge. Seems like a decent enough fella, I suppose. At least he didn’t yell and shout like some of them other fellas on TV. Hope he does a good job with them roads and trains and such. Lord knows we need it.
