Jackson Williams: I’m Sorry
<p>David Letterman <a rel=”nofollow” target=”_blank” href=”http://blogs.courant.com/roger_catlin_tv_eye/2009/01/bill-hicks-on-letterman-finall.html”>apologized</a> last night for ordering that a stand-up routine by the late comic Bill Hicks be edited out of a “Late Night” episode 16 years ago. Dave had Bill’s mom on the show, and ran a tape of the performance as a way of closing the circle.<br /> <br />
In Super Bowl Sunday’s <em>NY Times</em> Arts and Leisure section, Bruce Springsteen <a rel=”nofollow” target=”_blank” href=”http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/01/arts/music/01pare.html?_r=2&pagewanted=3&ref=arts”>admits</a> that cutting an exclusive deal with <strong>Wal-Mart</strong> to sell a “Greatest Hits” package was in error, given his reputation as a hero to the working man and the company’s history of anti-union practices. “It was a mistake,” the Boss now says. “Fans will call you on that stuff, as it should be.”<br /> <br />
It’s a new day in America. President Barack Obama is restoring honor and decency, and suddenly it’s a time that calls for doing the right thing.<br /> <br />
Along those lines, former White House strategist Karl Rove has privately contacted House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers to express regrets over his failure to testify about various scandals during the Bush presidency.<br /> <br />
“I did the wrong thing,” <em>Bush’s Brain</em> writes bluntly in a three page confessional obtained by this blogger. “I orchestrated the entire scheme of firing the U.S. Attorneys, and good people were tarnished in the process. I was so full of myself after having successfully outed a covert CIA officer that I simply couldn’t see straight.”<br /> <br />
No confirmation yet of rumors that George Bush and Dick Cheney have decided to forgo their lifetime, taxpayer-funded pensions, as partial atonement for the economic meltdown that occurred on their eight year watch.</p>
