Brodner's Person of the Day: Rudy the Impaler

Illustration and Text By Steve Brodner

January 30, 2008

Let us pause and note, among other news of the day, the proud work of the good people of Florida who have banished from public life (for the foreseeable) Rudy the Impaler. Never to be mayor or president . . . or to ever again publicly turn Ground Zero into a grotesque banquet hall. Down he goes and how wonderful to watch. Die, Dracula, die.

In my nightmare world, Rudy rises from the ashes and successfully gains the Presidency! Soon afterwards all the plants in my yard begin to wither and die...

LETTERS

"As a long-term energy-field professional, I was glad to see Mother Jones taking a more balanced view than that all can be solved with wind, solar, and conservation. How can we double electric usage and eliminate coal? Via an all-out nuclear power program. Nothing else can provide more than 700 gigawatts of capacity in the next 30 years. So, it is up to you and your readers: Demand a nuclear program or complain about global warming, oil profits, and fossil fools. Your choice."
