Satire [M]y father, temperamentally a gentle person, is often filled with rage. The news does this to him . . . . I have found a way not to be angry at all. I have taken shelter in the ridiculous.

Bush warned of in his State of the Union address.

Not only was this article in the paper today, it actually made the front page.
