A Fable for Today

This story took place about seventy years ago.

There was this young boy of fifteen or so. He was kind of big for his age. He got caught up in all of the patriotic fervor of the time, he joined the Army.

Basic training was nothing like he expected. He was homesick and he got picked on a lot. So he wrote his father and asked for his dad's help in proving his age so he could be discharged for being underage.

His dad sent back a very short reply: "Boy, you got yourself into this. You get yourself out of it."

I'll bet that right about now, John Boehner knows how that kid felt.

It must suck to be Speaker of the House right now. Why does Boehner want so badly to keep the job?

Idle, unsupported speculation: does he think there's a chance that the President will be assassinated, and the Vice President collapse from a heart attack?
