A limerick for Larry Craig:
The Daily Show needed to beg,
To get him on air.
We saw, I could swear,
John Oliver pulling his… leg!

Frivolity
Thursday, June 3rd, 2010Finger-Licking Good!
Wednesday, April 28th, 2010Sad she’s taking political lickin’,
Is there anyone out there more frickin’…
Insane than Sue Lowden,
Who should stop her shoutin‘,
‘Bout paying for healthcare with chicken!?!
Pea Tarty Pole
Saturday, April 17th, 2010According to a recent poll,
A tea bagger’s ultimate goal:
Stop government waste,
Their hatred misplaced,
Since half of them live on the dole!
Sorry my postings have been a bit sporadic, lately. I’ve been traveling for my “other job,” and having to post multiple days during single sittings. Some of my state-side readers might be confused by the “dole,” but this is the English term for what US readers might call “unemployment insurance,” “welfare,” or even “social security.”
Captured by the Game
Monday, March 15th, 2010There once was a girl, Rielle Hunter…
And many who’d like to confront her,
But now she’s made known:
Feels no need to atone!
Bet John Edwards wishes he could blunt her.
Strong Packaging
Friday, March 12th, 2010Amidst the legislative wreckage,
A new thought begins to gain trackage,
True to their form,
Repubs won’t pass reform,
Since they’re ‘fraid of our President’s Package.
Don’t Waste Your Food
Thursday, March 11th, 2010Today Oprah gave us the scoop,
And I’ll gladly keep you in the loop,
About a new diet:
The perk, if you try it,
Is frankly, how easy you’ll poop!
Benedict the Plumber
Monday, February 15th, 2010There once was a plumber named Wurzelbacher,
Who, amazéd, now finds it an erstwhile shocker,
He was used by McCain,
Found no personal gain!
Seems he’s merely a nice big reversal-f*cker!
This post wins the award for most applicable categories so far. There are just so many ways to classify this news!
Space Turtles
Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010It is truly a puerile disgrace,
To admit that the hurdle we face,
In our deals with Iran,
Is not the moron…
That’s their prez, but the turtles in space.
Congressman, Inc.
Monday, February 1st, 2010Sorry I’m a little bit later today. You got two-for-one yesterday… give me a break! By far the most bizarre outcome from last week’s supreme court ruling is that a corporation in Maryland has not only registered to vote, but plans to run for election to congress.
I admit it, I really do think,
That our country’s been pushed to the brink,
And even that hell’s come,
When we’ll soon say welcome,
To our new serving Congressman, Inc.
Human Holiday?
Monday, January 25th, 2010When it comes down to being a reformer,
This hotel chain is quite the performer,
But what kind of ending
Does one get from spending
The night with a human bed warmer?
Big Sausage
Monday, March 8th, 2010What could be more bizarre than the recent behavior of retiring Representative Eric Massa, charged of sexually harassing an aide at a New Year’s Eve party, resigning (but *not* for *that*), then claiming it was all a set-up because he is the deciding vote on health care reform… then finding a fan in Glenn Beck? What a… sausage. Still, in some cases, he might be right.
A Congressman named Eric Massa,
Lost more than a small bit of class-a:
Turning ethics to dust,
Is healthcare now bust?
Among Dems there’s no bigger kielbasa!
