Mockery and Derision

Hey. It’s nice to see you here. No, don’t worry. There’s plenty of space for you here on the bandwagon. You’re not too late.

Oh that? That’s just Ben Affleck. Hey Ben, move over will ya? Give Colin a seat.

Can I get you anything? You must be pretty tired. It’s been a long journey, from the Bush Administration all the way over here. I thought you were gone forever when I saw you at the UN. Guess that turned out to be pretty emberassing huh?

But no matter, you’re here now. You’re safe. We won’t use you as our “token black guy” to show there’s at least one minority in our camp. We won’t dupe you with false intelligence and make you look like an idiot, dragging your name through the mud.

Go on, put your feet up. I think you’ll find the chairs suprisingly comfortable. We raised 150 million in September alone. We can afford a pretty nice bandwagon. So go ahead.

Do you want to be Secretary of State again? Oh, I get it. Too soon. Well we’ll talk about that later. Until then, just hang out and enjoy the ride Mr. Powell. It’s good to have you here.
