The Pony Question...

Robert's Stochastic thoughts: All us reelly kool bloggers celebrate extremely bad news for Bush with photos of cute little ponies.... I don't have the faintest idea why, but I am blindly obeying the blog borg.

I thought it was in homage to Belle Waring's best weblog post ever: If Wishes Were Horses, Beggars Would Ride -- A Pony!:

[H]e should not only wish that Bush would say a lot of good things about democracy-building and fighting terrorism in a speech written for him by a smart person, he should also wish that Bush should actually mean the things he says and enact policies which reflect this, and he should wish that everyone gets a pony. See?
