What God has…
-I don’t know why we Republicans try to disguise
Trickle Down.
-It IS a coherent theory.
-Can even show isolated cases where it’s working!
-Why disguise it with the claim it's primarily for the little people?
-Such populism might help a few plutocrats sleep.
-Ah the lovely little people!
-When they know their place.
-Naturally.
-Or Naturally Rhythmic for the truly despised!

Billion Dollar Bracket
Wags at Basketball
-Did you jump through the hoops before you
filled out your Billion Dollar Bracket?
-Yup. Confirmation numbers through cell and
email!
-Keeping the riffraff out.
-Who can blame them? Not me, about to join the
One-Percent!
-Pick a lot of upsets?
-Fight fiercely Harvard!
-I do miss Tom Lehrer. He'd make up funny songs about
Yahoo and Google today. But Yahoo gets the edge with
your cell number!
-I suppose. They count the hairs on my right ball, and Google
on my left.
-That's not the whole sordid picture.
-NSA handles that.
-Good! We need protection from Communist sonsabitches
like you!
-Hey, I'm a fuckin Republican!
-Ever more bizarre.

Right Education Philosophy
-We want to destroy public education because it's a failure!
-Stick with that! But it's a mixed bag. Handsome success
in communities with some money.
-But the others?
-Producing sordid little units. That's where we take over.
Because that’s where the humongous profits are!
-From poor districts?
-Mais oui! Hire idealistic kids from college, pay peanuts,
give them a bushwah lesson structure purporting to spit forth
sharp little citizens...
-But really manufacturing the same sordid little units.
-You can't shine shit.
-Then why bother?
-Because privatization is the golden goose everywhere.
Education is by light years the very plumpest one!
My mouth waters!
-I...still worry about the future.
-Nonsense! You make money you buy the future!
What could be simpler?

The Challenge to Statistics
-You can't say a group is crazy. Most likely the individuals
can be plotted on something like a Bell Curve. Thus Republicans are not crazy, as you aver. Some are,
some aren’t, most in the middle.
-Uh huh? All your surveys and wily questions lead us to the usual lump of suet floating in dishwater.
-If it’s clear science, it often doesn't grab headlines.
-How about women?
-An absurdly large group.
-I withdraw it. I know the answer and it's not their fault.
Each one's a changeling, exchanged at birth.
Bred to be totally impossible.
-Where are the original babies?
-Growing up on a Deathstar, ready to collide with Earth!
-Why is it that every discussion with you ends up
as nonsense?
-The norm.

Republicanism,
rending anthems for
minor league baseball
& weeping on cue.
