Congress
Dear Editor: RIP: common sense and humanity. Good-bye: compassion and compromise. Adios: National Parks and NASA. Enjoy your indefinite vacation, federal government workers. Don’t forget to contribute to the reelection campaign, gentle voters! As always, they only have your welfare in mind. Make sure to reward your congressmen for the selfless, hard work they have done!
