Led By Dummies

Headless manikins all in a roe Which one will end up being the hoe? If you could stand them out in the snow, You would be amazed at which way they blow! Punch them in the gut for they have no feelings. Snatch them, pull them, bite them make them go a reeling. For after all, they work for the U. S. A. And we elected them our leaders and now we must pay! And if you are fortunate enough to draw a paycheck. Take a gander at what is taken for taxes and say, "HECK!" This is a mild expletive compared to what we should say, For when they're finished with it, there's not much pay! And you may ask me, "Just what do they take?" And I say, "Look man, HELL's BELL's" so for our sake, Let's put them back in a roe, in the snow, And beat them with a stake, or even a rake. And about which one will end up being the hoe! Just read the daily paper and watch Fox News And by gracious, you will know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I share your angst with the current state of affairs. Right now I'd lke to pick up a "stake or even a rake" and join you in pummeling our politicians. They always seem to be doing more harm than good and I'm beginning to think each state should have its own governing system but we should eliminate the one in Washington. Are you with me? If you watch Fox News, you probably are. GREAT poem! Love, Carolyn
