Poetry corner:When the Obots see the budget deal,
with a COLA that makes seniors squeal,
they'll shout out, "Don't you know,
this is only for show",
"What Barack signs will have more appeal".
(which it won't)
It takes a political dope,
to think that there's any faint hope,
that the cuts to S.S.
will have any success,
stopping plutocrats' financial grope.
When Obama plays his kind of chess,
even though it sure looks like a mess,
you'll hear words of praise,
about all the ways,
why the Beltway, he'll surely impress.
When Barack's at the bargaining table,
He tries hard, as much as he's able,
for a difference to split,
'cause he don't give a shit,
if you're poor, elderly, or disabled.

Read the nonsense you wrote at Balloon Juice yesterday, too.
Diagnosis: Firebagger who never got over Hillary's humiliating defeat in '08, and has boiled in resentment ever since.
Be sure to donate $$$ to Calamity Jane so's she can tell her tiny portion of the Internet how Obama hurt her tender li'l fee-fees.
Michele Bachmann and Grover Norquist thank you in advance.
wow, demon. that's a novel diagnosis. never heard that one before.
so predictable from you cult of personality bootlickers: when you can't defend the policy, shoot the messenger.
the thing is, when all the critics are dead, we are still left with the indefensible policy. now what?
Q, more poetry, please.
As a fellow Firebagger, I was wondering to we have to wear those ridiculous costumes the Teabaggers wear or can we just set our clothes on fire? That's what we did in the 2000 and 2010 elections.
These don't quite scan.
In limericks, syllable count and stress should be perfect.
I guess I'm feeling easily annoyed this evening.
Because of events.
