What could be written to lighten up today's politics?

That question came to mind here today.  Scanning the archives of Eyes Not Sold, I found a post from May 2008 that fits the bill for the most part, almost depressingly showing how little things change. The excerpts from P.J. O'Rourke were good for a laugh here, one that was needed.  See if they work for you.  The link is www.eyesnotsold.blogspot.com/2008/05/political-humor-still-possible.html.

(sorry, the link does not work so it will need to be typed in, or go the the archives for May 22, 2008)
