Sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows.
A bright lucky penny.
Puppy dog tails and children's laughter.
Brown paper packages tied up with string.
A field full of flowers.
None of these things come to mind when reviewing the news coming out of Iraq:
Candies and nuts
Extreme chaos
But, like the president, I feel today like imagining everything is going super-duper.
Is that a bluebird of happiness I see?
As soon as I eat my sugar-plum I'm going to follow it over that rainbow to a pot of gold.
Tomorrow I expect to be back to normal, so please don't tell me about all the bad times I'm missin'.
The president, I expect, will still be searching for the candy man that can on the little train that can.
