An Open Letter to the President

Dear President Obama:

Recently you have been accused of being a Nazi, a socialist, and/or a Nazi werewolf. While some of your critics are clearly insane they do have a point -- it's time to give up on health care reform. If the complete absence of any logical, rational, or coherent thought among these people has proven anything it's that someone, somewhere has failed them. This is why I urge you to begin an immediate and swift reform of the public school system. Because people need to know that Kristallnacht does not mean  "Night of the Single-Payer System."

Regards,

Karl
