Today's news, in sonnet.

The Bolton confirmations are proceeding
"bullying" and "angry" have been mentioned
but any signs of failure are misleading
since Repubs rule (despite all good intentions).

Apparently in all our rivers
silver streams of mercury are flowing
but there's a lawsuit here which may deliver.
Now if we could only just stop glowing...

So colleges become discerning
Want more football and less learning
No problems here, it must be said
As long as they still print the spread.

And finally, I have a notion
to up this blog's repulsion quotient.
