Sometimes I will have Mel Brooks moments as opposed to Seinfeld moments. This is an example:
These are direct quotes from President-Elect Obama's speech on the economy yesterday.
"The result has been a devastating loss of trust and confidence in our economy, our financial markets, and our government." .........
"That's why we need to act boldly and act now to reverse these cycles."
When I heard those lines, it reminded me of Reverend Johnson's sermon to the Rock Ridge congregation in Blazing Saddles. Please note, however, that Obama left out the Reverend's last sentence - I think he's saving it for his Inaugural Address
Reverend Johnson: "Now I don't have to tell you good folks what's been happening in our beloved little town. Sheriff murdered, crops burned, stores looted, people stampeded, and cattle raped. The time has come to act, and act fast. I'm leaving."
