Femme Fatale
“I think that it is essential to instill in America’s children the principles and practices of capitalism,” Newt Gingrich exclaimed as he was being led away in handcuffs for stealing cookies from Girl Scouts. His latest legal problems have somewhat eroded his lead as the Republican frontrunner. He is now fourth behind Eczema and Mitt Romney. The new frontrunner is the late Natalie Wood.
Conservatives have rallied behind her, asserting that she exemplifies their bare bones approach to government. In response to concerns about Ms. Wood’s health, her supporters note that she is as articulate as Herman Cain, and certainly more animate than Mr. Romney. Ms. Wood’s performance in “West Side Story’ has raised the question that she was an illegal alien. However, Anne Coulter could reassure her audience that “Puerto Ricans are legal. We own them. Besides, that Maria character was not really Hispanic, just some gay Jews’ idea of one.”
Marnie Nixon is available to dub Ms. Wood’s inaugural address.
p.s. Let’s not forget the historic events of this week.
