Good morning, xs. My watch says it's 8:31 am, so I'm not really late, am I? :-)

Good day, xsmommy:

C-Span radio is now doing comedy
Regarding the New Political Comity
I was listening last night
It must have been a sight
Howard Dean was in hilarious, exigent form
Howling about the Sins of the Right
Screaming about "diversity"
Oh, the concupiscent absurdity!
Save for Donna Brazile
Who can annoyingly shrill
His audience was embarrassingly white!
