“Party First” Politics (3-Verse Limerick)
\nBy Madeleine Begun Kane<\/p>\n
When the government runs out of cash
\nAnd shuts down, then just who will you bash?
\nIf you’re paying attention,
\nThe party you’ll mention
\nIs Republican — that’s who you’ll trash.<\/p>\n
But misinformation’s widespread
\nCuz the public is constantly fed
\nBig Republican lies
\nWhich attempt to disguise
\nWho would chop off the government’s head.<\/p>\n
Yet the GOP’s mission is clear:
\nIt’s a goal they’ve chased year after year
\nTo stymie Obama,
\nNo matter the trauma
\nTo all that our nation holds dear.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
