Turkeys in the Straw Poll

by Braddon Mendelson

John McCain has found religion
Or at least it’s a good bluff
Fred Thompson thinks celebrity will be enough
Were it not for 9/11 we’d say “Giuliani” who?
God I hope that our next president’s a black female Jew

Some on the left and some on the right
Some in the middle and some outta sight
No matter where their issues stand
They’re all a bunch of turkeys
And they’re getting’ outta hand

Obama lacks experience
I’ve heard some people say
Kucinich shot an animal to make his own toupee
John Edwards is so liberal
It makes Rush Limbaugh ill
And if we vote for Hillary
We hope we’re getting Bill

Some on the right and some on the left
In matters of integrity they are all bereft
No matter where their issues stand
They’re all a bunch of turkeys
And they’re getting’ outta hand

Mike Huckabee thinks dinosaurs and
People lived at once
It looks like our next president
Might be a dunce
Mitt Romney as a governor
Vetoed a stem-cell bill
And Ron Paul is so liberal
It makes Rush Limbaugh ill

Some on the left and some on the right
Some in the middle and some outta sight
No matter where their issues stand
They’re all a bunch of turkeys
And they’re getting’ outta hand

Happy Thanksgiving

Voices of Uncertainty

A Limerick for the Strike

Some writers once put forth a proffer
To open the studios’ coffer
A scoffer named Counter
Doffed off the encounter
And scoffed at a fair Counter-Offer
