Gracias Gringos

Folks must be happy in Guatemala

   With tax money frittered by Kamala

      Will she visit the border
 
         To 'stablish peace and order

             Or is she just Joe's otiose* wallah**

Kamala is a joke, but, where you never laugh, your limerick on the otherhand, ha, ha, ha . . . ; )

Great limerick on “Laughing Lady”. That’s your money she is giving away. And Americans cheer? And we know the international community loathes the USA. The money does go to the countries. Arafat was the only one who kept it and absconded the country. I best stop here.LOL Pangie xx

Thanks, Pangie. As I indicated to Lindsay below, the loot is probably resting in some greasy politicians or generals Swiss bank account. Bob

Hello Bob … handing out money hand over fist never reaches the intended reason for it. I can see why you’re gritting your teeth Bob - Lindsay

You are so right, Lindsay. The money is probably already in some seedy politicians bank account in Switzerland. Bob

Thank you, Gershon! Pouring more of our tax money down a rabbit hole. I don't mind paying my share of taxes but I damn well care how it is spent! Bob H
