@jbf1755 Very, very sad. What a wonderful tribute to a brilliant man.

@jdesmondharris Tell your daughter the horse's name has to be changed, but don't threaten to sell the horse. Suggest a similar name, such as White Light, to make the transition easier. Explain WHY again & add that the name "White Flight" will make people have negative reactions to her horse.

@kylebuchanan Speaking of end-credit scenes: did you ever see the end credits of Down with Love? 2003. https://t.co/7p1ZQzkXqB

@Notaspellingbe1 Spelling Bee did not recognize "doeful" and "doefully" today. Those aren't obscure words. They aren't words used only by people with specialized or professional knowledge.

This is how I feel about self-isolation and sheltering at home. How about you?

Donald’s latest tweet (not really):

PRIORITIES

A national emergency!
A heightened sense of urgency!
I’ll set the tone as head of state,
But, gee, my golf game just can’t wait.

[Poet Pundit @ESFine]

The nerve-wracking polarization
Suffusing our worrying nation
Will grow if a center-right jurist
Is replaced by a FAR right-wing purist.

[Poet Pundit @ESFine]

JUDICIAL TEMPERAMENT

A blubbering partisan hack
Showed a clear and dispiriting lack
Of a temperament suited for judges
By his firmly held, one-sided grudges
And retorts full of immature sneers
To the questions on drinking and beers.

[Poet Pundit @ESFine]

Speaker Madness

GOP Speakers surprised us this week:
Ryan announced he would no longer seek
A seat in the House—he will give up his spot—
And Boehner announced that he’s now selling pot!

They Made America Great Again!

They Marched for their Lives and their speeches brought cheers.
Their insights and eloquence also brought tears.
Although they can’t vote yet, they carried their weight,
And thousands of kids made America great!

[Part 2 of "Little Donald's Big Parade"]

Now army tanks, fighter jets, serving as props,
Will show to the world that Donald is tops!

A draft-dodging rich kid, a no-show in ’Nam,
He faked faulty feet for a doctor’s exam.
He yearns for a showy and pompous parade,
An arrogant, despot-like power charade,
A gaudy exhibit of strength and of might
To flatter a fraudster too frightened to fight.

[Poet Pundit @ESFine]

The state of the union of Trump and his wife
Is “Stormy” and hellish and loaded with strife. . . .
