Spring Back

Reading the news over the past week or two I can’t help but get the feeling we shouldn’t have turned the clocks forward but instead maybe should turn the clocks back. Way back.

Now I may be just guessing here but it seems to me that CBS might want Dan Rather back. Then the “Today Show” probably would want Katie Couric back.

There is sentiment in Iraq that some Iraqis want Saddam Hussien back. And George Bush (if he were sane) would want the last four years back. Certainly John McCain wants the last six months back.

And America wants Bill Clinton back.

Redskins coach Joe Gibbs wants his retirement back.
Keith Richards want his father’s ashes back.
Imus wants his stupid comments back.
Al Gore wants his electricity back.
Senator Inhofe wants his gavel back.
Karl Rove wants his e-mails back.
Rudy Giuliani wants that video of himself in drag back.

But as cold as it has been the last few days, most of the country just wants spring back.
