Stealing a thread idea: political Limericks
I saw this in the Lounge by LynzM, and thought it kinda cool.
I had a few disasters of my own, but I'm sure there
are some great minds here that can come up with better
ones. To start the ball rolling (probably over my own
feet, but that's my problem):

There once was a guy named Obama
Whom Limbaugh compared with Osama
But Limbaugh is crass
With his head up his ass
And needs a tent for his pyjama

or:

Consider Rudolph Giuliani
Whose Italian jokes are not-a funny
His personal life
Is all peppered with strife,
So who cares if he's dressed by Armani?

or:

Consider the Gingrich named Newt
Whose jowls are not thought of as cute.
So on Sundays he goes
On the Talking Head shows,
To show off his Brooks Brothers suit.

or:

An Arkansas gov'nor named Mike
Said he's what the far right will like
You may think it odd,
But he's chatting with God
On his cell phone while riding his bike.

OK, y'all: your turn!

2. It is early, only one cup of coffee, but here goes...
There once was a senator named Reid
Who said that our wished he's heed.
Since then he's been useless
His efforts all fruitless
How much longer must our Constitution bleed?

And for one more - these come easier to me the less I think about them...

For seven years we've had a problem with Dub
He's sent countless Dems to a pub
We cry in our beer,
He misuses fear
We are now in deep shit - that's the nub.

4. Get another cup
You need to work on your meter, but the muse is definitely with you this
afternoon (er, hmm, I guess it's still morning back there!).
