OK, I've been behind the times lately. I've got to admit it. I haven't had the time to check the news as much as usual. I haven't been able to keep up with the blogs. I have virtually no idea what's been going on in the world lately, except for a vague sense that the entire Middle East is just a tad less stable than usual.
So when I sat down for a couple of minutes tonight to watch the Daily Show, I have to admit that I thought Stewart had finally gone over the edge. It's good to be funny, after all, but there have to be limits. Accusing the President of the type of thing that could be construed - just about anywhere - as inappropriate physical contact just wasn't funny. The fuzzy video sort of looked like him, but it really couldn't have been, right.
I mean, even he couldn't be tha - I better check.
I don't believe it. It defies words. "National disgrace" comes close, but it still doesn't capture the true depth of this one.
With George Bush and his administration everything is always worse than you expected, even when you include this maxim in your expectations. Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon are looking better every day.
I thought you were gonna write about the pig.
