3. sure would not have

survived the many national crises I've lived through without political humor. I think the earliest political humor I can remember was back when I was about ten. (I grew up in the northern colonial states, politics used to be part of the ABCs along with all the other elementary lessons one learns as a child. Civics lessons started in the first grade.) So I have learned to lean heavily upon the blessing of knowing others have the same views and can see some irony or humor in them.

5. That's why I started posting these

I can only stand so much of the news these days - have felt that way since that painful campaign - so I change the channel as soon as I can. I depend on the late night guys to put things in perspective and the humor allows me to sleep nights.

Thanks, Rhiannon!

7. And doesn't it seem like it's been decades by now??

I can barely remember what it was like to have a normal functioning government led by a POTUS who was the smartest guy in any room and was working for the American people...
