Little Light runs a dog-whistle through a filter, so the rest of us can hear it. I must say, I was wondering what the point of Huckabee’s desk story was, let alone why it got such a response from the audience. Now that I know McCain’s secret identity, though…
When John McCain was crucified
Er, tortured, in Hanoi,
His actions served to earn a desk
For every girl and boy.
You cannot earn a desk yourself,
No matter what you do;
Be grateful Jesus John McCain
Has earned that desk for you.
So give him thanks; send John McCain
Your votes as well as prayers–
He died so we could all have desks!
(The school board bought the chairs.)
Hat tip to Bora!

Yikes! Scary! Not your post. Your poem was perfectly barbed, as usual…

Well said.(Oh, incidentally, my blog has moved, if you’d like to update your sidebar thingy.)
