Today's news, in sonnet.

For his Court nominee, Bush seems
to want a speedy confirmation.
And for the Democrats, this means
the pool cue. Without lubrication.

They say that sometimes life and art
will both agree to imitate.
But when King Ralph's the subject's heart
then it's time to inebriate.

Carjacking and violent crime
is no big deal for games kids play.
But find a sex scene, then it's time
for them to take that game away.

Scotty, I'll buy you a beer
when we meet at that frontier.
