KISS MY B&W

by Bill Costley


“Kiss my B&W ass” says Obama
asked how he intends to enlist more
Republicans in his stimulus bill. “If you
think nothing but tax-breaks work,
join Dubya in Dallas, getting wasted.
We have serious work to do.” No more
Mr. Nice Guy, Obama unsmiles; hardass
Republicans know their bluff's called;
McCain stiffly folds his one bluff hand.
Palin flaunts hers from way up in AK.


Bill Costley serves on the Steering Committee of the San Francisco Bay area chapter of the National Writers Union.
