Who?

I read the news that Gerald Ford has died. There will now be a flurry of news items about the good things he did during his mercifully brief presidency, most of them will be false. His pardoning of Nixon should have earned him some jail time.

I’m sure that Bush is welcoming this diversion in the news. For a couple of days there will be less attention paid to him and his plans for the continuation of World War III. He will get to assume a statesman’s role and say some nice things about Mr. Ford. I’m sure someone will tell him who Mr. Ford was…
