Example:
Senator John Snowball decried the fall of U.S. greatness, taking to the Sunday talk shows and speech circuit to excoriate those he saw as the cause of the fall: the lame-street media, foreigners taking Americans’ jobs, liberal, secular humanist and their worship of the devil, and modern ice cream makers, whom he was sure, were not putting enough fat in his low-fat ice cream. He vows to bring them all to heal by dragging them before his Senate select sub-committee on the collapse of fat and the fall of the I.Q. of the American public.
