Humor and satire are tricky things to pull off well, and this piece hits the mark some of the time. Humor is subjective, of course, but sometimes the writing is a bit too heavy handed. Nice use of sound bites from Limbaugh, Bush, etc. Topic matter concerns the 2004 presidential elections, so the piece is definitely dated. I would like to hear more in the future from this producer.
