Pocket Pool?

A political pundit with power stuffed dollars in his purse by the hour. When called to court, he said “Why not, sport?” My daughter’s in real need of a dower. And, while running a nasty ad game He cried out “Why I’m not to blame!” He did it too, So *crew to you! And he rose up on a tide of acclaim?

Politics is just so boring...I can't stand to even look at the talking bobble heads, think what good could be done with all the money they waste putting these people on TV.
