Democrats didn't have an easier time than the Republicans and were mocked for being in disarray over their party's message and strategy, its position on the Iraq war and even whom to field for president in 2008.

"What do we stand for? We don't know. What's our platform? We ain't sure. All we know is Dubya's got it wrong," reporters sang, using a nickname for Bush.

The travails of House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi of California also came in for a ribbing.

"This job is a zoo, I don't have a clue," a reporter sang. But then "Dubya messed up with the ports. I don't know why, but thank you, Dubai."

Funny stuff!

"We built it, we paid for it, and we ain't giving it back!"

"The Panama Canal?"

"No, my backyard deck."

(from "Saturday Night Live" satire comparing baby-boomer Reagan supporters to "Body-Snatcher" victims.)

It was funny, it was critical of conservatives, and it didn't hurt Reagan one bit. People who think for themselves don't fear humor.
