A few nights ago, former ambassador Andrew Young was on "the Daily Show," talking about Obama's victory. He finished with a zinger. Paraphrasing, he said: it's just like with experience with the Black city mayors; just when the country's broke, we put in a Black man to run the show. (and, by implication, if he doesn't succeed, he gets the blame.) -- Jim Devine / "Nobody told me there'd be days like these / Strange days indeed -- most peculiar, mama." -- JL. _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
