[Newspoetry] Dumb Question

[Nicolle Ruth Neulist]

John (and all, i guess...),
it's not a stupid question...i wondered the same thing the first time i
heard his name mentioned in a poem.  Ari Fleischer is a man, and he is
George W. Bush's press secretary.  read his press briefings on
www.whitehouse.gov, and hopefully you will agree that his trying to cover
up for Dubya makes some of the stupidest and funniest reading
around.  it's also great inspiration for newspoetry.
i'm glad you liked my sonnet...thanks!
