Prelutsky Offers Apology

It takes a big man to admit when he is wrong, especially in these cantankerous times when even the slightest perceived mistake is jumped on like ducks on a junebug. Well, here's Burt, eating crow:

First of all, in the spirit of fair play, I need to make a public apology to Secretary of the Treasury Tim Geithner. Like most misinformed people, I leapt to the conclusion that he was a tax cheat. But after watching him spend several weeks bumbling around the Capitol, babbling about spending trillions of Monopoly dollars in order to restore America’s financial stability, I have come to realize he isn’t a cheat, after all; he simply has no more grasp of financial matters than Curly, Moe or Larry.

Good on ya, Burt!
