So Bill got in touch with us today yesterday. You know. Bill Clinton.
We thought maybe he wanted to chat about women, get our advice, that sort of thing.
Then we realized that Hillary was probably looking over his shoulder, making sure he wasn't looking at porn sites.
As it turned out, Bill wanted to talk politics.
And he gave us the nicest compliment: "With you [yes, Would We Lie] leading the way, the Kerry-Edwards campaign is writing a remarkable new chapter in presidential politics."
We blushed the first time we read that. But hey, the truth's the truth, you know?
However, as nonpartisan, fair but unbalanced journalists, we must stay above the fray.
Vote your conscience. But vote.
And if you simply have to, you can make us your write-in choice for the presidency of the United States.
If nominated, we'll run (it's really more of a walk, actually). If elected, we'll serve ... as long as we can choose a Cabinet that will do our thinking for us.
Hey. It's been done before, you know.
