I never thought I would think so highly of our former presidents.

I am a cynic and not easily impressed by politicians.

But the utter lethargy evinced by our current POTUS in the case of Kenneth Bae defies the ordinary perfidy of our elected o-fficials.

He has doggedly refused to send any emissary to ask for the release of this harmless and well-intentioned American citizen.

And while I privately hold with MIB on the original antics of Dennis Rodman–even a self-respecting extraterrestrial being would have the decency to parlay his coziness with one of the worst despots in modern history to pray for the release of Kenneth Bae.

Someone must pray.

Someone must.
