VOTE!
Thumbs up

Thumbs up

Twas the night before inauguration

And all around the White House

The Republicans weren’t stirring;

They’d been told not to grouse.

The porta-potties were put on the parade route with care

In hopes that St. Obama soon would be there.

The cabinet picks were hustled up to Capitol Hill

Where Hillary practiced being polite and not shrill.

And Pelosi in her tiara and Reid in his crown

Did their best to hide scandals from sun up to sun down.

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter

They ran from the chambers to see what was the matter.

They rushed to their microphones just to assure us,

But we still saw the crowd around Roland Burris.

Americans were interested to see the new show

And all the new actors with scandals in tow.

When what to our wondering eyes should appear,

But an inexperienced leader and his comrades of fear.

With a little chief-of-staff so sneaky and quick

That he can disappear when caught in Chicago style tricks.

More rapid than rats, his comrades they came

And he joked and pandered and called them by name.

Now Geithner, now Holder

Richardson and Clinton

On Socialist Browner

Olberman and Wolf Blitzer

To the top of the Hill, to the top of the mall

Now stash away, stash away, stash away all

All of your secrets and all of mine too

And smile as we perpetrate the biggest coup.

So up to the House and the Senate they flew

With their sleigh full of hand outs and St. Obama too.

And then in a twinkling we heard him speak

“We can do what we want. Republicans are weak.”

All dressed in Burberry from his head to his foot

His clothes were all tailored like he had lots of loot.

A bundle of pork he had flung on his back

It’s the Chicago way he said as he opened his pack.

His eyes how they twinkled and his ears did protrude

But no one stared, so as not to be rude. 

Giving a nod, up Pennsylvania Avenue he road

For the future of our country not well did it bode.

The Dems are plagued with dirt and scandal

With Blago and Holder and Richardson and Rangel.

With Republicans spineless and the media with him

The future looks bleak and daunting and grim.

Will everyone follow and act like sheeple?

Or are there liberty loving courageous people?

Where do we find those that are ready to fight?

They are to be found at RegularFolksUnited website.

We will stand up for liberty and for what is right

We will band together and raise voices with all of our might.

So fellow patriots we cannot worry or cry.

We have much to do—America is too young to die. 

That was awesome. Can I copy it on my blog???

Awesome! We love it. Wonder if Rush or Hannity will read it on their shows as this certainly deserves the attention. This should spread like wildfire over the internet. I am sending it to everyone I know. Great work, Ms. Roman.
