From Warren Bell’s piece today on Carol Burnett:

Carol graduated from Hollywood High, studied at UCLA, and came to national attention in a most unusual way — singing a silly love song to the secretary of State. I Made a Fool of Myself over John Foster Dulles was a novelty hit in the mid-50s and led, eventually, to Broadway. (The reader may pause to imagine Fifty Cent penning a similar ode to the current secretary of State.)

Do you think my career in comedy would take off if I wrote “I Made a Fool of Myself Over Mitt Romney”? And it could be a two-fer when it hits the top of the charts, becoming his unofficial campaign theme song.

Move over, Colbert Report.
