Indulge me, if you will.

For your consideration. :-)

And don’t forget the “Friends of Dorothy.” ;-)

Nice to hear from you Ruthy. And your analogy is spot on.

So here we are, waiting for all of America’s Dorothys to come home after they realize the Wizard is a fraud.

Let's home they don't miss the hot air balloon.

Interesting take on it.
I thought watching Obama was like watching the Wizard of Oz; he’s a man without a brain (economics), a man without courage (”present”), and a man without a heart (abortion).

The Wizard of Oz was written as a political parable -- all about the gold standard (the Yellow Brick Road). In the book, Dorothy was returned to Kansas (normalcy) by silver, not ruby, slippers. You might find this site interesting for its discussion of this here

I was an early reader and had read all of the Oz books by the time I hit second grade. I really, really believed in Oz. There was the name, of course, and my mother was from Kansas. Apparently (and I don't remember this), each time I finished an Oz book I'd drive my parent crazy by insisting we take a trip to Kansas to visit Mom's relatives. I just knew that if I could get there, Oz was just a tornado away.
