From Ed in Vienna on a NY Times blog:
...if the Democrats had not rammed health care down our throats, no way this could have happened.
there's more...
I fully expect there'll be something like this on Fox tonight. Only not as snark.
First, if Obama had stood up the Chinese, this never would have happened.
Second, if Obama had not inked that agreement in Prague with the Russians, believe me, this never would have happened.
Third, if the Democrats had not rammed health care down our throats, no way this could have happened.
Fourth, if ever there was proof that there simply must be a strong Israel, this is it.
Fifth, there needs to be a high speed train network from Europe to the US.
Sixth, I like it when people already at home tell those stranded to chill out. Shows real compassion.
Seventh, they used to say if there was ever a nuclear war, one should live in Vienna, because everything comes here ten years later. But our airport is closed now, too.
Eighth, has anyone tried to take a match to this volcano, you know, like our bunkmates showed us in summer camp late at night? It might work, right?
