Poor Rod Blagojevich got a 14 year time out for his corruption conviction for trying to sell then Senator Obama's seat after he was elected president. Hey, it's a start.


Old Rodney got caught with his pants down

Admitting to corruption and deceit

Now he’s off to the hoosegow

Where a new shower mate he'll soon meet

 

His lawyers agree he is guilty

He’s begging for mercy from the judge

His mop top makes him look so sweet

That to the inmates he will be fudge

 

Now I’m no fan of Obama

But even his seat is not for sale

Until it is raffled for public bid

The Supreme Court’s ruling did entail

 

So unless you’re a GE or SONY

To own that seat you should not even try

Because corporate citizens all have got dibs

With their contributions piled up high

 

In the meantime see ya later Rodney

You make a lovely poster child

While providing the perfect corporate cover

For their donations that are now running wild.

Jeeze, ol' Rod must be thinking, If Lindsay Lohan can get away with all that shit, I ought to be able to get away with a wee little corruption and deceit, you think?

Patrick, As always, you seem to have your finger directly on the pulse. Great offering.

I feel certain he won't be lonely,,,,, In fact, I expect he'll have had several new lovers long before the New Year arrives.

Rod's vacation is well deserved. I'm sorry for his children though. They are paying a significant price for their father's corruption and greed.

So unless you’re a GE or a SONY,
To own that seat you should not even try

So sadly, corporations now own most Congressmen,
And most citizens in America don't even asky why

And to Mr. Rod, we say Have Fun in Prison & Bye-Bye

Reviewed by Ed Matlack 12/7/2011
Federal lock up is a piece of cake,
Three hots & a cot & living by a lake,
Though still Rod will become a packer of fudge,
Or he will meet his maker covered in identifiable sludge...e
