Scorning Mitch’s “Scorched-Earth” Threats (Limerick)

Saturday, March 20th, 2021

The threats from McConnell are worth
Very little, excepting some mirth.
He’ll tie up the work
Of the Senate? That jerk
Has blocked bills from the birth of the earth.

Devilish Deal (Limerick)

Saturday, February 1st, 2020

Trump’s impeachment’s erased any doubt
That the GOP’s ceded its clout
And sold off its soul
To that scurrilous troll
In the Oval; it’s owned by that lout.

Senators Quiet and Unplugged (Not a Gag!)

Sunday, January 19th, 2020

Headline: “No escape: Senators to be quiet, unplugged for Trump trial”

Self-restraint’s bound to sting.
(So will jail should they opt to defy it.)

GOP Blockheads Block Witness Demands (Limerick)

Tuesday, January 7th, 2020

Hill Headline: “McConnell has the votes to block Democrats’ witness demands in Trump impeachment trial”

Donald Trump’s taken actions illicit,
But Republicans scoff and dismiss it
As perfectly fine
While they toe Mitch’s line…
And that makes them corruptly complicit.

Putin’s Puppet (Limerick)

Wednesday, July 18th, 2018

Trump’s submissive to Putin and meek.
He is craven and shockingly weak.
Donald’s bluster’s replaced
By behavior debased.
And his party’s response? Piddlin’ pique.
