Short Honeymoons

To say I’m disappointed in Obama so far is an understatement.  I list my complaints, in no particular order, as follows: inability to adequately fill cabinet; silence on the black and white morality of the Blagojevich scandals; and, of course, a completely uninspiring non-response to the economic crisis.  Force the banks to acknowledge their holdings are worthless.  Geithner’s pathetic “we have a plan to come up with a plan” speech was anathema to a solution.

So I turn to e.e. cummings and wry political satire that is timelessly tuned into the human psyche.  I have a feeling that trying to recreate this type on WordPress is going to fail, but here goes anyway.
