Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Here is my example with WFTD.

The Bushes have selected a patriotic theme for the WH Christmas tree this year.

Wonder how the WH tree will be festooned under an Obams administration? didn't the Clintoons use condoms for their theme

Though I spent the week on vacation, I blew every opportunity to break out the christmas decorations, to festoon my entryway with lights and wreaths and cimmamon scents, opting instead to spend it raking up 28 bags of leaves from the yard.

Wouldn’t the definition of the word “festoon” be a confession by Bill Clinton of his wrongs, i.e., the “toon” “fessed”?

At the Grammy’s, they’ll fete and festoon
Some dumb rapper who wrote the “best tune”
Jay Z? Kanye West??
Maybe Snoop Dog’s the best
Our culture will be laid to rest soon

I used to enjoy helping my fatehr festoon our house with Christmas lights every year, but our landlord is not crazy about letting me festoon the outside of our apartment.

Do I get extra poionts for using it twice in one sentence?

Festoon : To make a silly, unbelievable confession. Festoon is a contraption of confession and cartoon, hence festoon.

In a sentence: “The blind man made a festoon to looking in his neighbor's window”.

I should festoon something around here. It’s my son’s birthday. He’s already had 2 cakes delivered by girls from school. I’m not making one for him until the weekend because we don’t need that much cake in this house.

0bama’s “holiday” tree - if they have one, he already stated they don’t celebrate Christmas with presents [maybe at all?] - will probably be festooned with little replicas of Fairey’s commie art, along with cute little red and green hammer and sickles, and little shiney “black power” upraised fists - and for the top of the tree, the Islamic crescent!

Before I can festoon the house with Christmas lights I need to go next door and un-borrow my ladder.

I had a limerick but Truth beat me to it, and I concede. His is better. Besides, I am getting tired of ragging on the election. I want to include it anyway, as an unofficial extra homework. I’ll probably get punched on the playground for trying to butter up the teacher.

The Democrats festooned a poltroon
Who played the crowds like a bassoon
The ruse did its work
They elected the jerk
And his Presidency can’t end too soon.

Sorry I am late to class.
I was on vacation last week and had to go back to work today.

Perhaps next year’s White House decorations will be festoons of Che Guevera!

For Ann Coulter’s B-day, the place should be festooned with streamers:
