Good morning, my FRiends. You'll have to soldier on without me for a few days but I know you are up to the task. Here are the words of the latest Shanklin parody as my parting salute:

With a Russian-style military band piece playing in the background, an announcer comes on (sounding a bit like a Slavic Jesse Jackson) ...
Announcer: Now a message from comrade speaker of the house, Nancy Pelosi.
SanFranNan: Recently, the Republicans attempted to use the House chamber to confuse the American people about our country’s energy needs. They have unfairly accused me of turning off the lights, microphones, and C-SPAN cameras. I did not do any such thing; I told the janitor to do it, to save our precious natural resources.
While on vacation for the next six weeks, DemocRATs will be thinking seriously about our country’s energy needs – instead of all this crazy talk of drilling for more oil. I call upon all Americans to use alternative energy sources like wind and solar, to commute to work and cool their homes over the next six weeks. Let’s show Republicans how to think our way through this crisis.

Hear it here: RushLimbaugh.com It's on the free side, middle column under the Time Magazine cover "Is Nancy Pelosi Good for America?" Enjoy
