Lame Duck

There was a great bit on The Daily Show a few years back: Jon had Rick Santorum on the show, and before the interview began, he announced that he had challenged himself to come up with a statement they could agree on. As best I can remember it, it was: “Ice cream is a delicious treat, but when eaten before dinner, could spoil one’s appetite.”

Feeling adventurous, I decided to see if I could up the ante, with a greater number of statements about a greater douchebag. In honor of the final year of Bush’s interminable administration, I’m going to challenge myself to come up with 10 (oh yes, 10!) statements that he and I could agree on. Wish me luck.

1. I like America.
2. Terrorism is bad.
3. I love my spouse.
4. I was born in Connecticut.
5. Dogs make wonderful companions.
6. Cherry blossoms are pretty.
7. Sometimes I just feel like dancing.
8. The coast of Maine is a lovely place to vacation.
9. I hope Hillary Clinton does not become president.
10. I am terrified of Dick Cheney.

Wow. That was tough. I think I need a nap.
