Wall off the Burrows

Bush political appointees are burrowing in by transforming to civil service.

I say, ok. If they can't be fired, re-assign the sleeper cells (Bush Bombs?) to a special Bush League department, put them each in a cubicle with a 386 computer, monochrome monitor with plenty of burn-in, one-button mouse, and a dial telephone. Give them jobs counting grains of sand.

In a Manner of Speaking

Barack Obama often uses the word "look" to introduce an answer to a question. He's saying, "Look. This is what I see. I think that if you look, you will see it, too."

Transition

We won't be out of danger until 12:01 pm, January 20, 2009.

Then we'll be on the road to recovery, I hope.
