Presidential Dilemmas: Jerking Sympathy



If you expected to jerk some sympathy
from me I am afraid you’ve wasted your
whole, melodramatic presentation.

Actually, I am not afraid, I am jolly well
pleased you’ve wasted your time, you’ve
just wasted a substantial amount of mine

with a drama which barely rated as
entertaining. It was scarcely earth-shattering
news and you misplaced the punch line

anyway. I suggest you try something different,
why not adopt an original, if somewhat pathetic,
approach – why not grovel and beg?
