The above chose category is more apt than Political Science, as the subjects again and again demonstrate than they aren't practicing no science at all, political or otherwise, just "fill my pockets"...


Poem Artwork









If it wasn’t that our pathetic lives were at stake
we could consider Congressmen a barrel of fun,
but they are sending us all to Hell on a basked,
and a laughing matter those schmucks are none!

Perhaps no one has told these monkeys that coffins don't come with pockets. In addition, we are eternal beings. I think that what they steal and connive away from others here on this earth will be taken from them in the next. Poor, poor monkeys. Hugs, Georg, J'nia

I'm voting for cheetah this election. He might have been a chimp but he was at least loyal. Ptrick

Good political satire writing Georg and if you put faces on those monkeys wonder which one would end up with the leader's. LOL

Can you fit them all in just one barrel?

This applies to all over the world, George. Every country is ruled by those who float on the surface because they are light. The heavy ones have already sunk. A funny joke I have once heard was: A father on his death-bed said to his unborn baby: You and me are not going to meet but I want you you to be a fool when you grow up. His wife surprised with what her dying husband said and asked --Why. He said " at least he will be a minister" smile. Great poem.

Well, well, well, Monkeys, Apes, finally something about the animal kingdom, the White House, yes we'd certainly have a healthier planet, and a less corrupt one. What on earth happened Georg, you gots so horny, did the pension cheque not come in, ha, but you are right on the barrell, or in it maybe. Loved your outburst, and short and crisp way of doing it, I mean the outburst.
Bless you! Jasmin Horst

Mr. Ed's comment is my shoutout today and on May 10, 2010 election day in the Philippines. Malacanang Palace's barrel of corrupt monkeys, philippine version. (Oooops, sorry guys. just fed up with politics in my country.) Peace and love in Christ.

Hugs and smiles,
Sheri

poverty bites *ss that's for sure (been there done that)
their pockets will never be empty
or even close to fair as an honest dayz work
...a nickle saved is a nickle spent
or is that penny?

Maybe we should put all the politicians in a zoo, and let the animals out to run things. We might even do better with a 'Planet of the Apes.'
