Compassionate Badger said...: i understand that it is satirical, but this just provides fuel for the far right to continue its unsubstantiated bashing.; 7:16 AM, July 14, 2008
illusory tenant said...: They would and will continue that anyway.; 11:04 AM, July 14, 2008

Anonymous said...: It's in keeping with the New Yorker brand of humor. Risqué enough to incite cocktail party titters, but banal enough to be thoroughly unfunny.; 1:08 PM, July 14, 2008
illusory tenant said...: Two for a quarter and a penny change, sonny boy.; 3:22 PM, July 14, 2008
