Cry baby politico

Either laugh or cry. I'll attempt a chuckle my tears ran dry.

B**ch and moan

Whine and cry

Can someone here

Please tell me why

 

I read the papers

Almost everyday

There’s always something

That makes my day

 

Sarah’s gone fishin’

Bernie’s in jail

 Sanford’s caught

Spinning Argentine tale

 

Cheney’s been dumping

On Dubya Bush

It’s certain Pelosi

Has a head full of mush

 

The CIA’s been lying to

Congress again

My what a surprise

Let the contest begin

 

Limbaugh is choking on

Sonia’s opinion

Oddly confused about

Potential dominion

 

The Golden state budget

Is no where to be found

While the mayor of LA

Keeps sleeping around

 

Lamar just can’t live

On ten million a year

Were I a fan of the sport

I would boycott next year

 

Washington is spending

More money than exists

On the entire damn planet

For its political twists

 

I really get tired

Of inbred politicians

We should just replace them

With circus magicians

 

You would know in advance

For the price of admission

With a smile on you face

You’ll get beat into submission

I always say, if you can do it better yourself, you should! Get your petition and run for mayor of the SCV--wouldn't that be a hoot?

The only thing worse than the newpaper is the smiling faces of the newsreaders on tv. Where is Edward R Murrow when you need him most?

Cheers,

"We should just replace them

I think in Canada and the US politicians are doing just fine making the money disappear
Great write, I don't read the paper anymore, it's just bad news anyway:)

Hi Patrick, Let's stage a walk-out! It could work! It could happen! Well, a revolt, anyways. People won't stick together, though. Great write, Patrick, and one that I'm sure the inbred politicians will beat you into submission for. :) Thank you for sharing...

In Spirit,
Bear

Maybe we shouldn't replace them, at all.

Very clever, Patrick; let's throw 'em all out and start over! Take our country back; whatever happened to "for the people, by the people"??

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(

Ahhh, the joys of politics... and the the Odom comment, of course. Very creative.
