We at These Times try to keep it light

But sometimes things are just not right.

To have this guy continue these claims

With his only point to fan the flames

Of total destruction – for his gain –

It’s truly causing me undue pain…

Many of you must be wondering now

Since her basketball team has just said ciao

And her Senate seat (which she never won)

Is also at this point very much done,

What in the world will she do with her time?!

Where else can she bring her wealth and her slime?

The trouble with trying to seem so fair

And pretending your past helps make you care

Is that facts can be so inconvenient!

Like those which prove you’re not very lenient.

And in the process of making your case,

Actually leave you with a bright red face.

Behold two screenshots of this division

Whose mission is to preserve the vision

Of keeping land healthy in key locations

For current and future generations.

The first is Donnie’s – a big wall of coal!

The next is Joe’s – with a different goal.

For those very few who may not recall

Mitch put on a display of utter gall…

Nine months to go before the election

He would not sit Obama’s selection.

Even though these two are both getting old

Vengeance is a dish that is best served cold.

Codes are distributed to folks in need

But humans just can’t suppress their greed.

So they’re jumping the line ahead of those

Who rightfully need it, everyone knows.

How do these people fall asleep at night

As their moral code withers with blight…?

Turns out that this post is simply not true

But does seem to reflect his point of view.

Of course he may also make the dumb point

That this should put scientists’ nose out of joint –

If global warming is true, he will scold,

Then why in the world is Texas so cold?

Boy don’t those French have a dramatic flair

With their cheese and wine and well-styled hair!

Philosophy too has a rich place there,

And people speak with their hands in the air.

But now some ideas could be a threat!

And will be thrown out like a stale baguette.

That’s the thing about fighting for justice
The bad guys they all come out to bust us.
The price to pay can be very high
In many cases you might even die.
But inaction also has a high cost
What value is life when morals are lost?

Well this surely is no big ‘ole surprise!
All his piety and puppy-dog eyes
Can’t hide the fact that he just doesn’t care
For the folks of Texas – or anywhere.
And then to cavort south of the border
In that crime ridden den of disorder…!
