The Witch Hunt

Passing the Moon

Flies the wicked witch

Over the White House

Squatting on broom stick


Casting a spell 

Vigorously stirs the pot

Abracadabra 

Collusion it's not


Behind bars

Disciples pay the price

For the love of money

They are the sacrifice


In this witch hunt

Circulating Capitol Hill

It's the Salem trials

All over again

I see that we are on the same wave length here, Arturo. See 'A Witch-Hunting We Will Go,' posted May 03. I certainly feel the scent of witch-hunting in the air. Unfortunate. Best wishes, Gershon

Politicians are all corrupt and if they met you on the street wouldn't give you the time of day. Tom

Both to blame...somebody's got to do the job...at the end of the day it's we the people responsible for voting them in...Thanks for passing by

I enjoyed this one and the way I read it, both parties look ignorant (which they are)

I'm a Canandian. So I don't have a horse in this race but those Democrats are just like a bunch of petulant children. Such a shame. Have a great day my friend.
