Mark Steyn notes the following thought for the day, taken from a post on the Democratic Underground: "Reality sucks. That's the problem. We want a new reality."
Jesse Jackson and his groupies marched in protest outside Congress while the electoral votes were being tallied. They, too, wanted a different reality.
Steyn does miss a point, though, when discussing the "Rhymin' Reverend".
Now on the one hand it's very brave for the Rhymin' Reverend to lead an orange protest. There is no rhyme for the word "orange." Irving Berlin tried and the best he could manage was "door-hinge,"...
At the risk of waxing pedantic, it turns out that the botanical term for a capsule that holds spores until they're ripe is called a "sporange".
I will not attempt to write a compelling jingle rhyming "orange" with "sporange".
