The President Invites Romney to Lunch
By Elton Camp
His rival to the White House he’s invited
It’s unlikely either one is really excited
There is a whole lot of public doubt
As to what the two men will talk about
But most observers have a hunch
It’ll be quite an awkward lunch
“Hello, Mitt, welcome to the White House
I’m sorry I had to call you a lying louse”
“Likewise, Mr. President I had to say
That the economy you would betray”
“Before we eat, let me give you a tour
For you’ll never live here for sure”
“I did try to make you unemployed
Out of a job that you really enjoyed”
“I know you don’t want coffee or tea,
So water & serving of crow it will be”

Obama and Romney
Barrack Obama
Tracked down terror mastermind Osama
And then trounced Mitt Romney
A mere Presidential nominee.
Poor Romney had lots of money
At times funny with promises like honey
But popular trend he couldn’t buck
It did really suck.

Romney Loses to the President
By Elton Camp
Six years to be president he waited
The outcome he understandably hated
He said whatever people wanted to hear
And sought every chance to bend their ear
“That skunk who’s in there now is no good
So to elect me as president is what you should”
“It’s true that I am a fellow who’s filthy rich
But I still have concern for those in the ditch”
“Yes, it’s a low rate of income tax I pay
But it’s legal and ought to stay that way”
“No, you can’t see my income tax return
To see what I give and how much I earn”
“Okay, in foreign banks I keep my dough,
But that’s nobody else’s business, though
“While that yellow Big Bird I like okay,
He’s a needless expense that must go away”
“You’ll wish you didn’t re-elect that slob
When he can’t help you to get a job”
Romney may not be as ungracious as this
But he’s bound to be miffed at his miss

I voted for Barack Obama four years ago.
If you're wondering if I'm going to vote for him again, the answer is no.
Two weeks from now I'm going to vote for Mitt Romney.
After watching the debates, he's the candidate for me.
If Romney wins, he'll be a far better Republican than George Bush was.
I hope that Romney wins two weeks from now, I'll be happy if he does.
I believe that he can balance the budget of the great USA.
I'll be tickled pink if he wins in two weeks on Election Day.

born into wealth and money
Can't conceive of life as the Beaver
and pushes temps as high as trench fever

watching the politician’s dick get
bigger as he
proclaims that
he’s got more money than
mr. hope & change,
WOW---who would have thought
that a business tycoon who came to
our eyes,
based on the fact that he had a lot of money,
now,
STILL has a lot of money,
in fact, he says he has more money than
mr. hope & change, which in this
bewildered empire
means a lot---
because people here worship money,
they see the man who has a lot as being
superior,
as being somehow
impenetrable to bullets,
impenetrable to bombs &
sickness---
yes, somehow, this
rich, white, mormon,
will outlive us all,
because his pockets are deep &
the underlings will no doubt
preserve his corpse on display
like mao
in some air chamber mausoleum or
perhaps locked up in some cryogenic
freezer in utah,
so that when it is the perfect time to thaw him,
he’ll come back to reign upon the living &
the dead,
in his planetary paradise
with his “god” in fantasy mormon land
as the one robot rich guy
whose ability to discuss anything but
money,
the making or money,
the smell of money
or the fact that he has more money than
you,
is simply
moot.

if when mitty looked out into the crowd &
told us all sitting at home
that “he likes being able to fire people,”
you smiled or
clapped,
or clapped & smiled,
then you have probably never been fired from a job---
you have certainly never been “let go,”
or as they say in manager-speak,
“no longer with us.”
when what he said rang home to you,
what exactly did you feel?
did you say to yourself,
“hoorah, now we will finally have a country
that is run like a corporation & here is the CEO who will do
the job?”
did you think that finally a man has come along who will wash
the liberals out of washington---
one who will finally kick out all those who whine because they
can’t make the grade
in this wonderful capitalist free market economy of ours?
are you sick of people who say that they can’t find jobs
when really, you think they just don’t want those that are available?
ya think that mitty represents you, the honest, hardworking, american
citizen?
exactly how long have you lived here &
what positive outcome can such tyrannical assertions
produce?
