Martha Burk

I was surprised to see uber harpy Martha Burk back in the news. Burk has become a human "jumped the shark" indicator. Any time she appears in the news you can be sure that the issue at hand has jumped the shark. Hillary's campaign for President? Interview Burk to indicate it's toast. John Roberts nomination for the Supreme Court? Interview Martha Burk to show that his confirmation is a foregone conclusion. The NHL's marketing campaign? Interview Martha Burk to try to stir up publicity. The New York Times as a credible paper of record? Use Martha Burk's protest of Augusta to show that the people running the paper are tools in the vernacular sense.

Having said all this - now iron my shirt and make my dinner Martha.
