The House GOP is a mess.
And it seems to be anyone’s guess
When they’ll fin’lly elect
A new Speaker. They’re wrecked!
Is it glee you detect? Oh my, yes!

Friday, October 20th, 2023Matt Gaetz v. Speaker McCarthy
Monday, October 2nd, 2023The long-looming motion by Gaetz,
Meant to toss out the Speaker he hates,
Has fin’lly been filed.
So McCarthy is riled
And heated arm-twisting awaits.
Open Limerick To Kevin McCarthy
Saturday, September 23rd, 2023Dear Kevin, a Speaker must lead
And inspire; not meekly accede
To demands from a few
Nihilist loons. You shall rue
Selling out to a crew with no creed.
More McCarthy Mockery
Thursday, January 5th, 2023According to WP’s Robert Costa, Matt Gaetz says McCarthy must either “withdraw from the race,” or commit to a “straitjacket” agreement.
Come to think of it, straitjackets sound like a great idea for most of the House Republicans!
*****
As self-centered loons
impede race to be Speaker,
insanity reigns.
*****
This haiku, I swear,
is my last McCarthy verse
until tomorrow.
*****
Way too many pols
in Republican Party
naught but Pied Pipers.
*****
“Concession-Kevin”
becomes just-pretend Speaker.
Pyrrhic victory.

Limerick Ode To Paul Ryan
Wednesday, December 19th, 2018Headline: “Paul Ryan sure wishes we could have fixed the deficit he helped explode”
Good riddance, Paul Ryan. Buh-bye,
To a craven and faux-wonkish guy.
“Budget hawk?” What a joke!
You’re a tax-cutting bloke,
And your life’s a big deficit lie!
Limerick Ode To Nancy Pelosi
Thursday, December 13th, 2018Pelosi’s a powerful lass;
I loved how she kicked Donald’s ass.
Then she stomped the insurgents
And conquered deter-gents.
That woman has skills, smarts, and brass.
