To paraphrase Superchicken to his sidekick Fred, "You knew the job required long hours when you volunteered for it."<br />Imagine if Bush or Shrub had failed to appear at Arlington for the annual speech before Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The Media would, of course apply Ayers's Rule 1 to him. "Make sure your opponent plays by the rules."<br />I thought Being There would remain fiction. The POTUS is an empty suit, and the VP is an empty head. <br />Both should live long lives after this election, in disgraced obscurity, cautionary examples of the danger of electing blank slates on which each voter is free to paint his (or her) image of what he or she was voting for.Windy Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01951254236693386401noreply@blogger.com
