So it’s bound to be
Hillary (thank god)
Obama can’t and
Warren gave her word
and if donkey's second best’s lust
full hubby can please
keep his self-destructive philandering
habits to himself
and both of you please stop
taking big money for
giving speeches because
it’s all about public service and
remember to get all money
out of politics anyway and it better
be Bush on the elephant side
just in case because
for one reason
who could begrudge a man for
defending his own brother against wmd
and another is anyone but those fruit cakes
from Texas Florida or Wisconsin and also
he’s better than the other wacky tea party folks and
