House Vote From Hell

'Words are my oxygen, I breathe to live' Reason took a break today Just long enough for evil to sway The vote in question protected you From keeping groundwater a slimy blue Fracture away the house did say Profits trump sanity, bribery belay Tho elected to serve, me and you Majority laughed, now drink from the loo! "See, we can fix the elections, glory be! To those who hold power, money is free!" Corruption runs wild in this fair land Globalist run congress with a heavy hand No one will notice, 'till the water spews From your hoses in flames, devils dues By then the handwringers; will line up Asking tough questions, bank acc'ts plump Paul Revere rides! the people are awake! Sound alarms to your friends, or attend their wake... 11/20/13
