Ditch Mitch

Ditch Mitch McConnell, I say,
Make room for new blood today!

He promotes a party schism,
Also, plain obstructionism.

A major fault, I can see,
Not a hoot for Kentucky.

We rank very low in stats,
Mitch tries to wear many hats.

What’s good for U.S. of A.,
Mitch quickly stands in the way.

So sad that he is a multibillionaire, paid to make sure Kentucky remains one of the poorest states. Only working toward his own GREEDY gain. Taking money from big corporations, at his constituents expense.

You've got that right! I have absolutely no respect whatsoever for this man. I wouldn't walk across the street to see him or hear him speak!

Yet Kentucky voters chose him over a woman with integrity . . . .

25.I.22 Hawai'i News Now reported a UPS plane had to return to Honolulu after an extremely foul odour was reported in the cockpot. The accompanying photo was of Mitch McConnell who was otherwise not mentioned in the broadcast. Aloha!

Not much to be said FOR Mitch, Ilene. He's made millions. He was of moderate means when he went to D.C., so he's a prime example of corruption.
