You know, come to think of it, if WW3 had been started by Squeaky Fromme shooting Gerry Ford… I would have been okay with that, in a dramatically hilarious manner. What a way to go! If you’re gonna destroy the planet, do it like the Muppets or Mel Brooks woulda. Much better than some stoic standoff between humourless dickheads. Make it a crazy circus and nobody would be too bummed out.
You know you’re crazy when you try to assassinate Gerald Ford. What difference was that going to make then? I imagine the Kremlin like the end of Burn After Reading. “Why do we care about this?”
