... and yet another - non-rhyming non-poem!
What do you call a SQUASHED Lawyer in the Road?
"SWEET REVENGE!"
OH - almost forgot - My Caption for the Pic is ...
DUH!

Even MORE Objections!

“I’m Mad as Hell ...”
This Morning on The Dianne Reem Show -
A Panel of ‘Distinguished Talking Heads’
Discussed - and Thereby Disgusted Me -
The Congressional ‘Pay-Offs’ from Various Lobbyists.
One of them stated that Besides Insurance and Pharma
‘Donations’ or ‘Incentives’ - Many Other Corporations
Did the Same Thing - Almost like it was OK -
For All Corps to Want and Get - A Piece of The Pie!
- Graft is Graft is GRAFT - Anyway you Slice it!
Another stated that the Poor Insurance Companies
Only Grossed a Three-Point Something Profit -
Nowhere Near what the Pharma Companies Garnered -
That - is Supposed to Make it OK?
Then, yet Another said that Some Kind of ‘Deal’
Was made - Behind Closed Doors - at The White House
Regarding Health Reform - In Order for THEM -
Not to ‘Bitch n’ Moan’ Too Much!
Is This Obama’s Transparency?
Collusion is Collusion is COLLUSION!
Anyway you Cut It!
These Pharisees in Whitened Sepulchers -
Make me want to PUKE!
These ‘Holier Than Thou’ Hypocrites -
‘Lord it Over Us’ from Their ‘Ivory Towers’!
“Tighten your Belts” - they Dictate to Us -
While THEY - Give Themselves Pay Raises -
‘Special Retirement Plans’ - Separate Health Coverage -
And Other Perks - Par Excellence!
“... And I Won’t Take It Anymore!”
THEY - THE FAB FIVE-FORTY-FIVE -
Congress - The Prez - The Supreme Nine -
ALL - Live ‘High Off The Hog’ -
And - Merely Throw Us - An Occasional Bone!
Sending THEM Emails Does No Good!
Calling and Writing Does No Good!
The Crooked, Slanted Mass Media - Does No Good!
ALL IN CAHOOTS! You Can Take THAT to the ‘Failing Banks!
What’s a Poor, Honest, Hard-Working Slob Supposed to Do?
Demand Equal Time! Demand Attention!
Demand Fairness! Demand Justice!
VOTE AGAINST EVERY INCUMBENT!
We Need Champions - Not CHUMPS!
In Fact - WE Have Been The CHUMPS -
For Much Too Long Now! Rightly or Wrongly -
Those Senior Citizens - Who Raised Hell at Recent
‘Town Meetings’ - Have The Right IDEA!
“GIVE ‘EM HELL, HARRY!”
That - my Friends, was the Phrase Used Many Years Ago -
To Encourage Harry S. Truman To -
Fight For What Was Right!
“United WE Stand - Divided WE Fall!”
It Is High Time for ‘The SILENT Majority’
To Stand Up And Be Counted!
To SCREAM To The High Heavens!
To Shake The ROTTEN APPLES Out of The Tree!
Time for - TWO-TERM LIMITS - At Every Level!
We Need More - Honesty in Government!
We Need More - Upholding of The Constitution!
We Need NO More - “Turning of The Other Cheek!
We Need More - American Patriots With - BALLS!
Testosterone - That’s The Ticket!
“Give me Some Men Who are Stout-Hearted Men -
And I’ll Soon Give you Ten - Thousand More!”
Shoulder-To-Shoulder, and Bolder and Bolder -
They Grow As They Go To The Fore...”
Saw Michael Moore on The Tavis Smiley Show -
Can’t Wait to See - “Capitalism - A Love Affair”!
Capitalism Has Destroyed Democracy!
IT Has Reduced Our Republic - To SHAMBLES!
CORPORATIONS + CONGRESS = COLLUSION!
How’s That - For a Balanced Equation?
All The Great Mathematicians That Ever Lived -
Are Turning Over In Their Graves!
Even The Engineers and Rocket Scientists Missed This One!
The Concept of ‘Free Enterprise’ is a Good One -
But - When Successful Companies and Corporations
Run Rampant and Rough-Shod Over The Government -
And - Gouge, and Rape The Public - They Are Wrong!
‘LEGAL" PROFESSION? WHAT A MISNOMER!
Evasion of Taxes - Oil Depletion Allowances -
‘Off-Shore Investments’ - Exorbitant Profits -
‘Lobbying Deals’ - Unscrupulous Contract Language -
ALL - Created by LAWYERS - And Condoned by Congress!
Attorneys Who - Create The LAW -
Create The Loop-Holes to EVADE The Law -
Create Corruption - Then DEFEND The Culprits -
Who CHEAT The Little Guy - JUDGES? PHOOEY!
AND OTHER PROSTITUTES GET LOCKED UP?
C’MON!
ETHICS? Do Any Attorneys Even Know The Word?
SCRUPLES? Can They Even Spell The Word?
JUSTICE? Are They All BLIND?
FAIRNESS? To Whom? For Whom? The Frigging CORPORATION!
I Have Always Hated The I.R.S. - But -
I Have More Respect For a Tax Collector - Than Any Attorney!
Even Jesus Christ Befriended Matthew!
But - NOT The Money-Changers in The Temple!
How Do You Spell - WHOREMONGERS?
Unlike a Dead Skunk in the Road -
Lawyers Don’t Deserve ‘Skid Marks!’

| Someone once said that if the government fear the people, you have a democracy but if people fear the government, you have a dictatorship. I'm inclined to believe that you have a dictatorship and have had one for the better part of the century. Yikes. |

| This is exactly what happens when government gets too big. Just bureacratic pigs at the trough. The solution rests with the people. The political system is too corrupt to right itself. Nice rant. Love it!! |
