Oh boy...

Vejo Vital Moreira na SIC a comentar a situação política nacional e não consigo deixar de pensar no que será que vai escrever no Causa Nossa, no seguimento dos seus comentários da semana passada às "declarações" de Paul Bremer, acerca desta "notícia" do The Onion:
"In a historic decision with major implications for the future of U.S. participatory democracy, the Supreme Court ruled 8-1 Monday that the American people are unfit to govern."
Eh,eh,eh.
"In North America the black bear was seen by [Samuel] Hearne swimming for hours with widely open mouth, thus catching, like a whale, insects in the water. Even in so extreme a case as this, if the supply of insects were constant, and if better adapted competitors did not already exist in the country, I can see no difficulty in a race of bears being rendered, by natural selection, more and more aquatic in their structure and habits, with larger and larger mouths, till a creature was produced as monstrous as a whale."
