For a Soundbite

Our new Speaker of the House had a day!

With childish plans that are meant this way:

Who cares about the real problems at hand

When you have such a great chance to grandstand?

His plan would lose money but make a mess

For Dems on Israel and the IRS.

RIP Chandler Bing

Quick with a line and keen observation

Fun Matthew Perry obsessed a nation.

And though he struggled with many demons

Throughout all his fame and TV seasons

He always seemed honest and open to

Trying to help himself… We’re gonna miss you.

Bud Dark

If you don’t know the story, good for you!

So Bud Light ran into a sales issue

When it started to market in a way

That its customers thought was a bit gay.

But rather than defend all people’s rights,

They have now sponsored all UFC fights.

Let’s Not Be Great?

I look very hard but can hardly see

Much of value left in the GOP.

Those still with morals seem to have no spine

And almost all of them constantly whine

About how bad our great country became

When their loss of dignity is the shame.

Little Terrorists

It’s a bold move that will sure rock the boat

Of all those parents who constantly dote

On children who act like psychotic freaks

And don’t use any parental techniques.

I love this measure and hope that it sticks!

People can’t let their kids be little pricks.

What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

Aside from the moderates’ total collapse

And the possibility that perhaps

This same man who voted against free will,

Rejecting an election… even still

There’s no need to worry, this will be fun

Since he’s the guy in charge of the next one.

What Could Have Been

Liz voted with Trump nearly all the time

So why was she pegged with GOP slime?

She supported policies that they want

And she was a strong right wing commandant.

But, well, then she called bullshit on Jan 6…

And got punished! So now we’re in this fix.

A Real Savior!

Who would have thought that indeed we agree?

Hard to imagine between Trump and me!

But he thinks that the only candidate

For Speaker of the House with any weight

Is Jesus Christ! No that is not a joke…

Which kind of proves the GOP is broke.

Shame, Where Have You Gone?

I miss shame. It seems it has disappeared.

People stay straight-faced even when they’re smeared

As the truth comes out about their behavior

Lie upon lie in the guise of the savior.

The message? If you feel shame you’re a chump.

And it pretty much started with Donald Trump.

Can You Imagine?

There are few things worse than losing your home.

A lifetime destroyed, and you have to roam.

It happens in war zones and disasters

And makes people lean more on their pastors.

But you wouldn’t expect, on vacation,

Your house gets destroyed to the foundation.
