I stumbled on this link to an article at The Onion (http://www.theonion.com) dated January 18, 2001.


WASHINGTON, DC—Mere days from assuming the presidency and closing the door on eight years of Bill Clinton, president-elect George W. Bush assured the nation in a televised address Tuesday that "our long national nightmare of peace and prosperity is finally over."

Two years later, we see the predictive power of satire.

Hahah. Now that's funny, Noc. And unfortunately more true than I want to admit.
