John McCain and his economic advisor Phil Gramm should really get their stories straight:
John McCain’s campaign says in their new ad that the economy is “in shambles.” …
In an interview with the Washington Times, Gramm says the economy is in relatively decent shape — and much more.
“You’ve heard of mental depression; this is a mental recession,” he said.
Moreover, Gramm said: “We have sort of become a nation of whiners. …”
Naturally, Gramm blames our “mental recession” on the media. And that brings me to my latest political verse:
Wham! Bam! No Thank You, Phil Gramm!
By Madeleine Begun Kane
We’re “a nation of whiners,” says Gramm.
Our economy’s not in a jam.
It’s a “mental recession,”
This public obsession
With price hikes and jobs on the lam.
So who is at fault? It’s the press.
Yes, says Gramm, they have brought on this mess.
It would seem that reporting
The news isn’t sporting.
Vote McCain for continued “success.” [tags]Phil Gramm, Economy Verse, Media Poem, Campaign Satire, Election Humor, Vote McCain, Mental Recession, Nation Of Whiners [/tags]
