"Whatever you do, don't piss off President KooKoo Brains "

Or so the White House Correspondent's Association asked this year's headliner Rich Little..."Tone it down" so they allegedly begged.
Usually at this point, I riff on the National Press and it's compulsion to grovel at the feet of a President with an approval rating that would provoke a palace revolution in a less sanguine nation.
However today Humble Elias just wants express amazement that Rich Little is still working at all.
I mean last I saw, Rich was doing his Reagan impersonation on the Tonight Show and that is before Hinkley tried to snuff the Gipper.
What deep Castle Keep within the SAG Old Ham's Home did they have to penetrate to get Rich on the bill?
I guess it was either this or Mickey Rooney and his All Wife Orchestra.
Who wants to work a room full of such miserable fearful stiffs anyway? Even Mickey Rooney would thrown in the towel.
My advice, is forget Bush, go after Cheney, the day some washed up impressionist can't denigrate a Vice President with a popularity rating on a par with Lex Luthor is the day we need to shut up shop and decamp for the caves.
