MIDTERM
“We have lost the dumb voters’ affection
But persist in our leftward direction,
‘Cause they don’t have the gumption
To resist our presumption
And we know how to rig an election.”

From the archive:

NIGHT OF THE VOTING DEAD
“We’ll be summoned from slumberous state
To endorse the quadrennial slate;
Then it’s back to the grave,
Where we’ll try to behave
‘Til the conclave of 2008!”
(2004)

REGISTERED VOTERS
The polls open and who comes in?
Mary Poppins and Mickey Finn,
Then Betty Boop
And Alley Oop,
Sherlock Holmes and Gunga Din!
(2004)

RECOUNT DRACULA
There once was a man named Vlad
Who was known for a habit he had:
With such pride in his nailing,
When he took to impaling
No one ever would challenge his chad.
(2000)

WINNING BY A WHISKER
“Our Party is poised to prevail
With this new registration by mail:
All corpses and cats
Are staunch Democrats,
So our candidates simply can’t fail!”
(1999)

Last week’s limerick:

CLIMATE EXCHANGE
I will trade you the Springtime in Spain
For the Autumn in Southern Ukraine,
And the Summer in Mali
For the Winter in Bali –
Plus September in Alsace-Lorraine.

What we are seeing is the transplantation of Chicago politics to communities throughout the nation that are completely unprepared for the level of fraud and intimidation that can be generated by thousands of unethical Democrats, including private citizens, local, state, and federal officials, and politicians, convinced that breaking the law is okay as long as the “right” candidate wins. – Fred Dardick

Another ACORN Exposé!

Louisiana Purchase

Wouldn’t it be funny if lots of people went here and pledged to support Obamacare ACORN-style — with bogus names?

*Organizing for America(‘s Destruction)

Nearly $1 million in Homeland Security funding typically earmarked for fire departments has been awarded to ACORN, despite a clear signal from Congress that it intends to cut off federal funding to the embattled group. – Washington Times

Did someone not get the message? Here it is again:

ACORN, corrupt. No more federal funds. Investigate, charge, prosecute, convict, incarcerate.

I heard about this group that was paying $3.00 per person, to go out and to get people to sign up to vote. So I went over, I thought that well this is a good way to make some money because I know everybody, you know. I went over there and this guy signed me up and everything and gave me my little pad all this stuff. Well I went out and got a lot of people, homeless people, but of course I signed everybody up as a Republican, and I would have put people had they been Democrats. So I showed what I had and he said NO NO, you a fraud, there can’t be any black Republicans, and Oh, he just kind of hung me out to dry. – Fathiyyah Muhammad

Go get ‘em, Fathiyyah!

ACORNOMICS
A gangster hired an advisor
To make the “wise guy” wiser:
“If you want to take over,
I advise a makeover
As ‘community organizer.’”

MIGHTY HOAX
Assigning bailout blame
Can be a cryptic game,
One must be deft,
Read on the left:
Now you know the name.
(2008)

REGISTERED VOTERS

Mary Poppins and Mickey Finn,
Then Betty Boop
And Alley Oop,
Sherlock Holmes and Gunga Din!

Last week’s limerick:

ALONG CAME JONES
He played green but was red to the bones
In a White House chockfull of his clones.
It is good that Van goes
And the public now knows
What to make of the man who hired Jones.

The difference between ACORN and the Mafia? The Mafia uses private moneys generated by illegal activities to pay off law enforcement and politicians to overlook those activities. ACORN uses public moneys to engage in criminal activities and pays off law enforcement and politicians with some of those same public funds to overlook those activities. – Bernie Planck

ACORN is clearly an organized criminal enterprise, it is national in scope, and it exerts a dangerous influence over politicians and our political process at the local and national level. – Chris Carmouche, GrasstopsUSA

ACORN forged both formal and informal connections with former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown and President Barack Obama, among others. Each of these campaigns received financial and personnel resource contributions from ACORN and its affiliates as part of a scheme to use taxpayer monies to support a partisan political agenda. These actions are a clear violation of numerous tax and election laws. – Rep. Darrell Issa, et al.

Americans cannot turn a blind eye to Obama’s corrupt tactics and subversive agenda forever.

REELECTION RECIPE
Take a crony-claimed “stimulus” stash
And an influx of overseas cash
(Use to cover expenses);
Add an ACORN-cooked census
For an edge in the 2012 clash.

RIGHT FROM HUANG
How can you help but adore
A guy with the gall of Al Gore?
He admits to no wrong
Taking money from Huang,
Then swears that he’ll do it no more.
(1997)

Last week’s limerick:

FATHER TIME
Twenty years ago I lost my dad
And the loss to this day makes me sad,
But I’m glad he was there
In my formative years
And can cherish the time that we had.
