Flog Me Gently With An Oil-Soaked Pelican

First, if necessary, review the Talking Heads, working out on either that mid-life crisis classic “Once In A Lifetime”, or, if you’re Stacy McCain, “Every Afternoon Around 3:30”:

Having studied up on the reference, so that you’re ready for a primo offering, you may then proceed to what will no doubt compete strongly for parody of the year (click to view, register/log in if necessary):

. . .And you may find yourself living in a big White House. . .
And you may find yourself with the largest oil spill in the world. . .
And you may find yourself blaming the last administration. . .

    I HAD to tweet this one! Hysterical! Holy cow, was that good. I loved ‘Toon Obama’s expressions. Thanks for finding this one!

    This ain’t no party. This ain’t no golf course. (What is this fooling around?)

    No, no, no. You don’t understand. According to noted scientist and political genius Jimmy Buffet, the spill is all George Bush’s fault, and who are we to argue with such brilliance?

    (I would suggest not giving Mr. Buffet any of our money, but that’s just what a Taliban would do, right gg?)

    C’mon gg, with all this typing and typing, and pretty much all of it off-topic, it’s so obvious even to all of us dumb conservatives, that you really want your own blog. Go on, fly, be free, leave the nest! You have nestled under Stacy’s sheltering, motherly wings for long enough, it is time to go out into the world and get your own site where you can type and type to your heart’s content without ever having to address the issue at hand.

    If it makes you feel better, I will even come by your site occasionally to post rambling, off-topic tirades.

    You know you’d be tempted too, Adobe! Admit it! Everybody slows down to look at a car wreck even though they say they’re not going to. At least until you were banned.

    Who knows, gg might even manage to steal one or both of Charlie J’s remaining readers.
