Limerick Ode To Smirking Romney

Mitt Romney’s weird facial expressions during yesterday’s press conference about the killings at the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, inspired me to write this limerick:

Limerick Ode To Smirking Romney
By Madeleine Begun Kane

Can a person be judged by his smile?
I’d say yes, when it hints at his bile.
If like Mitt’s, it’s a smirk,
Then a creep may well lurk
Underneath, one whose essence is vile.

  1. Yep. I thought the C&L article “Mitt Gets Worse” about Julie Goodridge was very helpful. I haven’t had a high opinion of Romney anyway, but this explains a lot (and not for the better). I don’t know how links are handled on this blog, but I’ll give it a try:

    Mitt Gets Worse

    How about a Romney limerick using the word “creepy”? Something like this:

    I always find Mitt Romney creepy
    Espec’ly if I’m a bit sleepy…

    But I leave it to the master. Mistress?

  2. Sorry. I’ve got one:

    I always find Mitt Romney creepy
    Espec’ly if I’m a bit sleepy
    If we elect him
    The future’s quite grim:
    Environment managed by BP.

    It’s like a drug. I’m not responsible! And you are an unrepentant pusher!

    Here’s another:

    I always find Mitt Romney creepy,
    Espec’ly if I’m a bit sleepy.
    He’s like a bad dream;
    I wake with a scream,
    And the rest of the day I feel weepy.

    It’s a presidential reporter’s perk
    to see Romney’s self satisfied smirk
    Now comes the lynching
    after Mitt’s bitching
    a reporter hardly needs to work.

    Can a person be judged by his smile?
    When it’s really meant to beguile.
    Judgment is OK we’d say
    If a smirk does truly display
    A haughty contempt that we all find so vile.
