GOPers treat gun regs with scorn.
(Hammer sales could be next, they forewarn.)
Tighten background checks? “Whoa!”
Ban assault weapons? “No!”
Yet their “thoughts and pray’rs flow,” as we mourn.

Republicans Still Gung-Ho About Guns (Limerick)
Sunday, March 28th, 2021An Assault Weapons Ban? If Only… (Limerick)
Wednesday, March 24th, 2021An assault weapons ban from the Sen?
Some Republican women and men
Should support such a bill.
But obstruct it they will,
As they’ve done yet again and again.
Sidney Powell’s Risible Defense (Limerick)
Tuesday, March 23rd, 2021The basis for Sidney Powell’s defense in the Dominion defamation case is that her claims about Dominion were too wacko to be believed by reasonable people.
Sidney Powell’s defense to the suit
For defaming Dominion’s a hoot:
Since her claims re Dominion
Were dubious opinion,
The judge has to boot the dispute.
Malaise At Mar-a-Lago? (Limerick)
Sunday, March 21st, 2021Mar-a-Lago is partially closed,
Due to Covid. No shock: Trump’s opposed
To the wearing of masks;
In rebellion, he basks.
The result? His club’s rep has been hosed.
Scorning Mitch’s “Scorched-Earth” Threats (Limerick)
Saturday, March 20th, 2021The threats from McConnell are worth
Very little, excepting some mirth.
He’ll tie up the work
Of the Senate? That jerk
Has blocked bills from the birth of the earth.
Dickish Sen. Wicker
Wednesday, March 10th, 2021Headline: “Wicker Already Seeks Credit for Bill He Voted Against”
Dear Sen. Wicker, your vote was a “Nay”
On the Covid Relief Plan today.
So no credit to you
Is plausibly due,
And your bragging’s a two-faced display.
The Meddling “Former Guy” (Limerick)
Thursday, March 4th, 2021GOPers are worried and fretting;
They’re afraid that Trump’s meddling’s abetting
The Dems in the House.
For they bet on a louse,
Whose candidate picks have them sweating.
Neanderthal Limerick
Thursday, March 4th, 2021Headline: “Biden calls states’ relaxing virus restrictions, including mask mandates, ‘Neanderthal thinking’”
Relaxing state Covid restrictions
Conflicts with the science predictions.
It’s “Neanderthal thinking,”
Says Biden, not shrinking
From words that condemn derelictions.
What Will It Take For Pence To Stop Repeating Trump’s Lies? (Limerick)
Thursday, March 4th, 2021My latest limerick was inspired by a recent Mike Pence op-ed in The Daily Signal. Here’s how he begins: “After an election marked by significant voting irregularities and numerous instances of officials setting aside state election law, I share the concerns of millions of Americans about the integrity of the 2020 election.”
Dear Mike Pence, I am forced to surmise
That you haven’t stopped backing Trump’s lies.
He endangered your life!
Yet your statements are rife
With Trump myths. That’s bizarre and unwise.
Enough With “The Former Guy!” (Limerick)
Monday, March 1st, 2021Is Donald a boor, or a bore?
How ’bout both? Yes, forget either/or,
For at CPAC his game
Was old lies, hate, and blame.
Don’t need more of the same toxic snore!
