Happy Maypril's Fool's Day --from the White House!

This cracked me up!  In a pathetic attempt to draw attention away from the rallies and marches around the country yesterday --and I have to say this is also an example of very unsuccessful "framing"--the White House has proclaimed May Day as um, hold on, I can't type it without laughing... er-hem, excuse me, International Loyalty Day!  I have to believe this is some belated April Fool's Day joke because it's just so hilarious --in an slightly Orwellian kind of way.  Just the sort of humor this administration might be expected to have.  Anyway I hope you all got out to a march yesterday, danced around a May pole and enjoyed your International Loyalty to the Worker Day!
