Democrat Sen. John Fetterman has been released from the hospital after a lengthy stay where he was being treated for clinical depression.
Naturally the media’s asking hard questions about how Fetterman’s health will affect his performance in the stressful job of being a U.S. senator.
Just kidding!
Here’s one of the first reports about Fetterman leaving the hospital from the New York Times:
Annie Karni (@anniekarni) ~ Metaphor alert -- When Fetterman checked into the hospital in Feb, the tulips in the garden where he took his walks were bulbs. By today, they had bloomed.
As a parting gift to staff he credited w/saving his life, Fetterman offered a bouquet of tulips.

That’s got “Pulitzer” written all over it.

The competition for those positions among so-called journalists these days is fierce. ...
