If the SC approves queer marriage callithumpers will parade through the streets of every major city celebrating their wild promiscuity.

The Chappaqua Memorial Day Parade proved to be quite a callithump, with Hillary Clinton and her alleged husband at its head and striking a discordant tone.

For Hillary, a waning callithump
While tomcat Bill craves an alley hump
In their media bubble
No reporting of trouble
While republicans take their daily lump
