A Poem for David Broder
David Broder wrote yet another classic example of High Broderism today, deploring the lack of civility in Congress.

A Setback For Civility

I couldn't resist posting my comment in rhyme:

Civility, civility above all!
For when our checks and balances fall,
and congressional oversight goes to the wall,
a shared cup of tea is the perfect cure-all.

Let there be no Congressional complaint!
Such rough-shod ways make David Broder faint!

We should all sit hand in hand,
sipping tea (or is it sand?)
While democracy across the land
vanishes - or was it banned?

But let there be no ruckus, please!
Such crudities make Broder wheeze!


I should write more poetry, I think. It's fun.
