Our Amateur Head of Defense
Has taken such righteous offense –
Thus Fox hosts react
When confronted with fact
Or reason, or logic, or sense.

Occasional Limerick #90: Headline: Greenland’s Prime Minister Slams “Highly Aggressive” Visit by US Officials, Usha Vance

And won’t make amends
And never will put things to rights

If people raise issues, distort them,
Or twist them all out of proportion –
Proclaim what offends,
Raise tariffs on friends,
And as for the people, deport them.
