Andy Borowitz Knows Exactly How I Feel

Yep, it's a satirical column, but sometimes Borowitz veers perilously close to hitting the nail on the head. His latest column, for example:

MAN IN COMA FOR NINETEEN YEARS ASKS TO GO BACK TO SLEEP
Bush Administration, Paris Hilton Top Coma Man's Concerns

This is my favorite line in the piece:

Mr. Deloit's doctor said that putting his patient back into a coma state would create an ethical quandary for the medical community: "Millions of other people would want the same thing."

FEATURED QUOTE

"It is the logic of our times
No subject for immortal verse
That we who lived by honest dreams
Defend the bad against the worse."


-- Cecil Day-Lewis from Where Are The War Poets?
