I immediately thought last evening that the emergency landing of US Airways Flight 1549 is a metaphor for the United States and Obama is the pilot. Can he safely land with two engines out- our economy in shambles and our dubious reputation abroad? Well of course after doing a search for this metaphor, it has also come to the minds of many. Here are some bloglinks to these metaphors:

How nice to find myself in such a lovely spot. Your work is provacative, evocative and crisp. I hope we have another meeting of the minds quite soon.
