Richard Fernandez at the Belmont Club, the best blog on the web, says the Internet only serves as a mirror we hold up to ourselves, and we are not even sure the likeness it reflects is the true one. I spoke to the Internet just today and asked, “Who is the fairest of them all?” and this was the reply:

No need to ask, no need to stare
The fairest is Obamacare
A cruise ship tied up to the wharf
Compares not to this beauteous dwarf
So fair she is that young men leap
To buy her plans their health to keep
Her beauty shines on sick and old
Who love her dearly so I’m told
So lovely that it’s such a shame
She’s comatose and who’s to blame
But Georgie Bush and all his ilk
Who wrapped her in this shiny silk
And laid her in this pose supine
Apart from that she’s doing fine
