WASHINGTON -- The American Left filed for intellectual bankruptcy today.
"We haven't had a positive idea in years," declared Tres Gauche, the attorney who filed the paperwork. "Our intellectual rigor is steered only toward slapping insults on the president and the administration.
"What's worse," Gauche continued, "is that the best and the brightest of our ideas have proven to be at best ineffectual. Even those that have worked are now in danger, such as Social Security, and all we can do is just call Bush and Republicans evil."
