Your Weekly Politickle: THE DODD COUPLE
Feel free to publish, post, or pass on Your Weekly Politickle by F.R. Duplantier:
THE DODD COUPLE
They’re determined, dirty, deft,
And audacious on the Left:
First Dodd and Frank
Defraud a bank,
Then investigate the theft.
From the archive:
SHORT FAT FANNIE
It’s so nice when a friend interposes
And everything’s coming up roses:
With Congressman Frank
Protecting his flank,
It was nothing but roses for Moses.
(2008)
BIRDS OF A FEATHER
In both Parties you’ll find creep and crank,
Even some who are thoroughly rank,
But Republicans wholly
Have disavowed Foley,
While the Democrats laud Barney Frank.
(2006)
WEENIE ROAST
In Congress there’s many a crank,
And a few who belong in the tank,
But leading the race
As a public disgrace
Is the Honorable Barney Frank!
(1998)
Last week’s limerick:
A SAP’S FABLE
All through spring, summer, fall the ant works,
While the grasshopper shamelessly shirks:
The ant socks it away,
But he still has to pay
For the prodigal grasshopper’s perks.
