The picture was taken at the Lincoln Medal ceremony on Honest Abe's 199th birthday, where a savage little gray-haired man who gets to fart in the same room where Lincoln farted bleated out these infantile words of praise: "He was a fabulous man, and a great President."
Presidents' Day is a fine time for comparisons to see the swift and deadly degradation of the office, and to remember, as we head into the rest of this election year, that whoever gets to breathe that rarefied stench of the Oval Office makes the nation see itself in his or her image. Right now, the United States is an alcoholic man-child twisting in rage at his own impotence and lashing out at anyone who would challenge him. One hopes we can do better.
