I wasn’t surprised when Smokey Diamond, our intrepid reporter, woke me at four this morning. Santorum got it exactly right when he said on national TV that Obama believes that “man is here to serve the earth.” Right on Rick! He did not have the time to mention that this dedication to serving the earth comes down to his ardent supporters—Smokey and I amongst them—and that the earth is a lot of work. Supporters alternate one week on, one week off to service.
Today, Smokey and I were frying up the eggs, bacon, home fries and toast that “His Sphereship” had ordered for its breakfast. It takes a lot of food to serve a planet. After we’ve done the dishes, with an environmentally friendly liquid soap, Smokey and I are going to start dismantling the patio in the back yard, which we strongly believe is interfering with the “Big Round’s” ability to breathe. Then on to the barbeque, Earth has ordered for its lunch.
It was good of The Rickster to take time from his busy schedule of explaining how turning back the clock for women to the 13th century is good for America, to give a shout-out to those of us— frenzied, rabid, radical, environmentalists— who somehow can’t be made to believe that paving the entire planet would not also be good for America. Crazy us.
