VINTAGE rick
It
was nearly unimaginable back then: Israelis and Palestinians
shaking hands on the White House lawn. It's even harder
to imagine now. Remember September of '93 in this Vintage
Rick!
NEW seasonal fave

do they call it "traveling" if you're standing still?
And can't anyone do something about it? Get moving with
this Seasonal Fave!
Clinton and Obama
Room at the Top? Not for Both of Them
By Rick Horowitz
"Senators Hillary Rodham
Clinton and Barack Obama have barely spoken to each other -- at least
in any meaningful way -- for months."
Ripped from
the headlines
If she doesn't chit and chat,
Discuss the kids and stuff like that,
Would rather hit you with a bat,
It's nothing personal:
You're in her way.
If she doesn't shake your hand,
And breezes by like something grand,
You're not exactly what she planned,
It's nothing personal:
You're in her way.
If she acts like you're not there,
Or nails you with that frosty stare,
It's just the spotlight she can't share,
It's nothing personal:
You're in her way.
If she takes the
long way 'round,
And flinches when she hears your sound,
And worries that you're glory bound --
It's nothing personal:
You're in her way.
If she says that you're na•ve,
And if she wishes you would leave,
And if she seems about to heave,
It's nothing personal:
You're in her way.
If she doesn't think it's cute
That you look gorgeous in a suit --
And how'd you raise that kind of loot?
It's nothing personal:
You're in her way.
If she's really had her fill
Of people saying, as they will,
That you're the one who's more like Bill,
It's nothing personal:
You're in her way.
If she once was on your side,
And gazed at you with warmth and pride --
Who knew you'd try to buck the tide?
It's nothing personal:
You're in her way.
If she's on the cusp of rage
Each time you say, "Let's turn the page,"
It's only that she feels her age,
It's nothing personal:
You're in her way.
So if her new demeanor seems
As piercing as twin laser beams,
She's just a girl who's got her dreams,
It's nothing personal:
You're in her way!
