I've figured out why Republicans refused to condemn Dick Cheney's four-letter word Senate outburst. It's because Republicans view Democrats as so evil, that anything goes. Especially those Democrats who are liberal and/or trial lawyers, both of which condemnations must be said with curled lip and a disapproving hiss.
Note, however, that trial lawyers are perfectly fine and upstanding individuals, if they happen to be Republicans seeking a Senate seat, like Mel Martinez. Which brings me to my latest song parody, "Ode To John Edwards" a/k/a "The Trial Lawyers Song." I hope you enjoy singing it to "Moon River," by Henry Mancini and Johnny Mercer, using this midi link.
Trial lawyers
Go that extra mile,
To see that all those vile
Guys pay.
They're risk takers
And rain makers.
They're able and knowing.
Wrong-doers they slay.
Corp grifters
Ripping off the poor.
They always want some more
For free.
But Edwards and like-minded men
Fight hard to rip-offs end,
And warning message send,
To stop corp'rate greed.
Rove lackeys
Go that extra mile
To Edwards' rep defile
Each day.
They're base fakers,
Tall tale makers.
They put down trial lawyers
Unless GOP.
Martinez,
Rove's trial lawyer pick,
For Florida's Sen tick,
You see.
Hypocrisy taints Rove attacks.
Can't beat our Johns with facts.
Rove's shameless lying hacks
We soon will defeat.
