This was wonderful--almost a prose poem. I don't consider myself a Democrat, and Independent, or a Republican. I'd like to start the Humanist party. What I'm saying is that I don't like to make fun of just one segment of society, but I must say that you rarely see Republican politicians laughing, unless it's the kind of sneer one sees in middle school from boys who laugh when the school bully throws a two-handed basketball pass into the face of the class geek.

"Most people don’t have a sense of humor in the first place," claimed
the poet James Tate.
The satire industry estimates only 5-7% of the American population has
a comedic point of view in any given life event.
Which means the satirical Rapture, an eschatological position held by
a few funny poets, particularly those of Tate evangelicalism, will find
themselves resurrected at a very tiny table under the exit sign
in the corner of Heaven.
So true
