HIGH ART AND LINGUISTIC MISDEMEANORS

First came the Rumsfeld poetry, now there's to be an opera.

So we've all heard Donnie's "known unknowns" bit, but 'ave yer heard this one?
Clarity
I think what you'll find,
I think what you'll find is,
Whatever it is we do substantively,
There will be near-perfect clarity
As to what it is.

And it will be known,
And it will be known to the Congress,
And it will be known to you,
Probably before we decide it,
But it will be known.
