Kevin's Back

clipped from www.nytimes.com Ladies and Gentlemen, President Obama continues life in the H.O.V. lane, fawned over by the press and the crowned heads of Europe. In between apologies, the president should have reminded those pompous blowhards that without our interference, they would all be speaking German. Here are some reflections for 2009: To President Obama: Thank you for saving the Republican Party and for teaching all of us that too much of anything is a bad thing. To Bill Clinton: You did too much work on Northern Ireland for the Nobel committee. Next time, do nothing. To Harry and Nancy: “The Twilight Zone” once had an episode where the town got the exact opposite of what it wanted. Farewell, Harry! To John McCain: Thank you for your chivalry in banning Palin attack dogs — including my sister — from the campaign plane. To Al Gore: A global warming conference in the middle of a Copenhagen blizzard is not a good visual.
