Republican “Patriots”
It’s amazing how many Republicans are rooting for Obama to fail, despite the dire consequences to our nation of presidential failure. As Steve Benen points out in his discussion of Michele Bachmann’s remarks:
Got it. President Obama has policies intended to help the economy, improve our national security, make quality health care more affordable and accessible, resolve the housing crisis, improve our existing energy policies, etc. Maybe those policies will be effective, maybe not. If they have the intended effect, we’ll have a safer, more prosperous future.
It’s fascinating, then, to see right-wing Republicans, including some currently in Congress, bypass the debate over the policies’ efficacy and go directly to rooting against the country. …
That brings me to my latest limerick:
Republican “Patriots”
By Madeleine Begun Kane
Disliking a president’s fine,
And critiquing his actions benign.
But hoping he fails —
That his White House derails?
I’m sorry, that crosses the line.

Fox network does false numbers quote
to justify the the Repuplican’s vote.
Those Naysayers vote so
no improvements will show,
boring holes in our Nations boat.
Do they share one giant closed mind?
The Republicans seem to be blind
They foment the hate
So let me now state
They can all just kiss my behind
Thanks for your fun limericks Gerald and Jesse!
