God Bless You, Mr. Borowitz
Phew! We were afraid no one would be able to make a joke conflating the Oscar nominations and the Iraqi elections this Sunday. It seemed so easy, yet... so very, very difficult. What man or woman is brilliant—and brave—enough to make this very important, very amusing joke? Who dares reach for this comedic height?
Andy Borowitz, of course. Always, Andy Borowitz.
One day, god willing, Borowitz will be canonized Saint Andy of the Slight Smirk. Unless Andy Rooney gets there first. Then Borowitz will have something mildly funny to say about it.
