Her Boyfriend is a Republican

I'm delighted whenever my daughter is
happy, but I have to admit I smiled yet a bit
wider when she told me, "

Her boyfriend is a Republican

OH, her voice is so cheery,
my liberal, oh so liberal, daughter,
who organizes her dormitory to recycle,
who fights for freedom of speech
for Che, the ultimate icon of revolution
and she tells me she is dating a
Republican? Mr. Andrew, no less,
a rather proper name, I’d say, a gentleman,
no less, someone with manners, are
there no Democrats with manners out
there at Harvard University? As for me,
I am delighted that my left wing daughter
is dating a nice young man, regardless of
his politics.
