The Nation's Pulse
A Visit From Old St. Hillary
With sincerest apologies to liberals everywhere and, once again, to Clement Clark Moore.
(Page 4 of 5)
br>
And her overall bearing was that of a saint.
/p>
p>A worn-out old bible she clutched in her hand
br>
And declared that upon it our nation should stand:
br>
“The war in Iraq is just part of God’s willing,
br>
Like permanent tax-cuts and ANWR oil drilling.”
br>
She was clearly possessed by some right-wingish soul,
br>
And she spoke with the drawl of Elizabeth Dole!
br>
A shy sheepish grin and a toss of her hair,
br>
Soon gave me a feeling of awful despair.
/p>
p>She spoke of the heartland with tears in her eyes;
br>
And grand fruited plains and of God’s spacious skies.
br>
When praising Rush Limbaugh and Tammy Wynette,
br>
She caused me to wake from my sleep in a sweat!
