Electile Dysfunction

I voted for Ronald McDonald for Governor
My local politician said that was rude
But if I had a choice of clowns
I wanted one with food
Now our Congressman’s campaign manager was Pinocchio
He thought he was very lucky
But when the campaign manager faced southwest
His nose was in Kentucky.
After watching all the election ads
I’ve been doubled up with gas
So when you’re done kissing babies 
Politicians can kiss my (Darn! Almost said it again)

Vince, Bowden was one of my heroes and I have a photo taken at Penn State with a big statue of Joe Pa. Paterno and Bowden really have a lot of class. Joe's job has been in jeopardy before, but he's managed to hang on to it. Hope he continues to do so. Bowden is traveling, writing books and enjoying life now. I knew him well from my days as a reporter and he treated everyone with respect. Love, Carolyn

They come to tell the people what they are going to do them, and in the same breath say the people is their boss. Slick! When I hire someone they do what I want them do, and kissing my baby is not of them. Powerful write, brother.

Witty write here, Vince. I am surprised that the campaign manager's nose only got as far as Kentucky... Congrats on a great win in the contest. Dan C

Hi Vince. Thanks for comments. I love this. I thought that only Ireland had politicians like this.They call them, 'Bananas' over here. When they start they are all green They then turn yellow Before long there's not a straight 1in the bunch Cheers, Eamon
