Baseball may be our national pastime, but the age-old tradition of taking a swing at Congress is a sport with even deeper historical roots in the American experience. Since the founding of our country, citizens from Ben Franklin to David Letterman have made fun of their elected officials.

This political climate today reminds me of what my father must have gone through in 1942, when the winds of war and fires of hate were surrounding him.
