During the winter

somebody built this snowman on a beach

and I thought it was funny

because

it was intended to be taken, bit by bit by the tide.

I mean.

It was designed and it’s only purpose was to be eaten up and swept away

– but that’s okay because there’s plenty of snow around to make another one-

you know

to feed the tide.

So today as I looked at this picture

and

I was thinking that the Republicans who opposePresident Obama’s Stimulus Package

 had better consider

what to feed that tide-

when we run out of snowmen.
