Watching Republicans out-maneuver President Obama on “bi-partisan” health care reform has been so painful, I sometimes feel forced to avert my eyes. So I’ve written this open double limerick to President Obama:<\/p>\n
An Open Limerick To President Obama
\nBy Madeleine Begun Kane<\/p>\n
Dear Obama, the GOP’s clear:
\nWon’t support any health reform. Hear?
\nYou can whittle the bill
\nDown to bupkis — you still
\nWon’t get votes. Yes they’ve duped you, I fear.<\/p>\n
Your naivety’s hurting our cause.
\nAnd so how about taking a pause?
\nWork with Dems on the Hill
\nTo create a fresh bill
\nThat has nary a GOP clause.<\/p>\n
