Editor,
In the fetid swamp of the White House, there lives a three-headed congress monster, vicious and evil. This serpent with poisonous blood has been ravaging the land and terrorizing the people. Its cold lizard eyes are pools of darkness that awakens children from a deep sleep crying out their terror and looking for the safety of their parents’ embrace. These soulless orbs search the land in the beast’s never ending quest to satisfy its bloodlust. Most recently it has been spotted haunting the waters of the poor and sick, the females, and other sacred creatures known as LGBTQ. The heads of this vile creature bear an uncanny resemblance to Senator Cotton, Senator Boozman, and Representative Womack.
Enraged at this betrayal of their most sacred traditions, the gods issue a mandate to seek out these congressmen and kill the beast at first sight. Senators Collins, Murkowski, and McCain take up the sword and swiftly slice the heads of Cotton, Boozman and Womack from the body politic. Victorious in their sacred quest to rescue the people from certain death, they hasten to return to the swamplands in D.C. Arising slowly behind them, blood dripping from its many mouths is the regenerated Hydra, all heads intact once again and laughing mirthlessly.
