Sacre Bleu!

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.

Ain’t that true

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?

Or a whole shaker

How do you get a job like this one?

Guessing the future, making a ton…

Right or wrong, never held to account

But always charging the same amount.

And as obvious as some may be

People nurse on it like a baby.

All the same

For sure this is more than just a bad look,

Some people are yelling that he’s a crook.

It certainly is a disappointment

Since throughout covid he was the ointment

That soothed our concerns and our deepest fear

With briefings that seemed both honest and clear.

The Magnificent Seven

Indeed it’s more than I thought there would be

As these senators from the GOP

Boldly decided that they should come clean

Persuaded by what the whole world had seen.

Of course Teflon Don skirts justice again…

There are just too many mice among men.

How hard is that?

I guess it’s true that hope springs eternal

If all the Editors of the Journal

See the great disgrace in what Trump has done

Could more conservatives also be won?

The paper’s base is for sure not the same,

But all votes to acquit would share Trump’s blame.

RIP Secretary Schultz

The core idea is really quite sound
What this great man had ultimately found
Is that you have to take some time alone
No texts or emails or ring of the phone.
An hour each week to give some thought to
The big issues in life that affect you.

I mean, ouch

Today is a busy one in the news we see:

Tom Brady is not joining the AARP,

The Real Impeachment begins season two,

The Polar Vortex has come back for you.

And then there’s this, from the Kiwi nation –

An illegal porcupine imitation…!

Bad Precedent

Yes, I’m now with Liz Cheney once again
Because I think it’s a bit uncool when
The party in power then in the House
Can ban an opponent, even a louse.
That said, the republicans have just failed…
They should have cleaned up, she should have been nailed.

Bye Pillow Guy

Of all the news outlets now on the air
Newsmax is the one that has the least care
For truth, decorum or getting it right
Which is what makes this segment such a sight!
The chaos and nonsense were so obscene
The anchor himself had to flee the scene…
