Did you know that the words "race car" spelled backwards still spells
"race car"?
And that "eat" is the only word that, if you take the first letter and
move it to the last, spells its own past tense, "ate"?
And that "strengths" is the longest English word with only one vowel?
And that if you rearrange the letters in "Tea Party Republicans," and
add just a few more letters, it spells: "Shut the fuck up you
pathetic, progress-blocking, benefit-grabbing, obstructionist,
out-of-the-closet-racist, resource-sucking, anti-tax, homophobic,
violent hypocrites and mindless non-compromising unrealistic fools;
and deal with the fact that you've nearly wrecked the country and that
our president is black, so get over it."
Isn't that interesting?

When I seen the line on this, I was going to say I prefer political chaos.
But yes, I like your word game.
Now, just imagine Chevy Chase reciting it in deadpan on SNL
