Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Here is my example with today's WFTD:

Obama and Dopey Joe Biden, two mountebanks that make the most outrageous snakeoil salesman look like a piker, are out on the trail selling more BS to an adoring media. Unfortunately, the republicans have their own mountebank in Newt, who appears to be rising in the polls for some inexplicable reason.

Obama's Half-Billion-Dollar Crony Drug Deal
Vice President Joe Biden calls SB 5 vote a victory for the middle class at stop in Euclid
Gingrich's 2012 platform at odds with planks from past

No pushing at the door please!

Happy Humpday Everybody!

Only days left until BO's replacement is sworn in.

Get to class you slackers! I've opened a new classroom, but Dave forgot to get the gradebook from xsmommy. So if you're looking for a grade you'll have to ping her. Secret Garden and Tioga are usually pretty generous with the plusses if you compliment their shapely legs, so you might try submitting your homework to them instead. My secret for getting extra plusses on my A+ from xs will remain a secret between me and her, so you're on your own if you want her to review your work.

Oh, wait, yes it is.
