There’re times to give honor, there’re times to salute.
But Obama knows neither, nor is he astute.
For he does not know
to behave, but to bow
and apologize much. Common sense? He’s a brute.

Ode to Nancy Pelosi. A song, Limerick style.
Since Nancy Pelosi took over the gavel
Was our economy quick to unravel.
She is more than bad,
The worst that we had.
We finally stopped contemplating our navel.
Since Nancy Pelosi took over as speaker
Our job situation has gotten much weaker
All jobs that are lost
Since she got the post
And as for advise, shame to all who still seek her.
For Nancy Pelosi, Majority Leader
The Chinese exploiters a life-line did feed her
Our debt load increased
Four trillions at least
We all must this fall go and vote to unseat her.
For Nancy Pelosi, known Tea Party hater
Gets scared when the grandmothers start to berate her
It does go to show
That she doesn’t know
The Tea Party is one great hate dissipater.
One more versse has been added:
One more verse to “Ode to Nancy Pelosi”
When Nancy Pelosi again became speaker,
the ravage of time showed it made her much weaker
and how nervous she looked
for her goose is soon cooked.
The Democrats future is looking much bleaker.
Obama and Sarah Palin on the same bus. A Limerick.
Our “post-racial” and “post-partisan” president insists that Republicans sit in the back of the bus: “We don’t mind the Republicans joining us. They can come for the ride, but they gotta sit in back.” The Anointed One apparently went off teleprompter for a few unguarded moments.
The Limerick:
Republicans: Ride in the back of the bus.
So that’s how Obama would like to treat us.
But Sarah, she sparks,
She’s our Rosa Parks.
She’ll take over the bus and not cause any fuss.
Harry Reid and the Tea Party Limerick.
When members of the Tea Party say that pork is federal money wasted to create jobs, then they know little about the realities of what goes on in Washington, Sen. Harry Reid, (D-Nev.) told CNBC Oct 22 2010.
“Whoever suggests that knows nothing about government, zero,” said Reid.
Reid, the Senate majority leader, who is in a tight race against GOP challenger Sharon Angle—a Tea Party favorite—was taking direct aim at the conservative group, which favors a limited role of government.
Between campaign stops in Nevada, Reid told CNBC that billions of dollars were set aside in the economic recovery bill to promote job growth. In Nevada alone, he said, that includes $1.8 billion for construction jobs in renewable energy and $3 billion in bonds to be sold that puts 2,000 people to work. “I’m sorry the economy is as bad as it is. I didn’t cause this economy to go down. I have worked hard to create jobs in Nevada,” Reid went on to say. “I’ve worked hard to save the education system in Nevada, bringing in $400 million to higher education and about $400 million to K through 12.” “They [the Republicans] are going to find—those people who have gone along with that Tea Party stuff—they’re going to find that it’s not their father’s Republican Party,” he said. And post-midterms, Reid had this prediction: “I don’t think you’ll find as many Tea Party members as you might think.” The Limerick:
“The Tea Party knows not how government works”.
We all get along, though we have our quirks.
As long as there’s pork
out which we can fork,
we squander our wealth like a bunch of berserks.
Obama’s new slogan: No Child left ….. A Limerick.
George Bush had a slogan: No Child left behind.
Obama the spendthrift has one of like kind:
No Child left a Dime.
It is a great crime.
He borrows as long as there’re lenders to find.
Harry Reid and the worldwide depression Limerick.
Oct 2010, Fox News: Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is having a heck of a time trying to get re-elected, in part, he says, because people don’t want to know that he prevented a worldwide depression. The Nevada Democrat, whose poll numbers are see-sawing against rival Republican Senate nominee Sharron Angle, told MSNBC’s Ed Schultz on Thursday night that voters in his state don’t feel reassured when Reid tells them of his global achievement because they’ve fallen so far down the economic food chain. “We were at the top and we’ve fallen very hard. So people have been hurting, and I understand that, and it doesn’t give them comfort or solace for me to tell them, you know, but for me we’d be in a worldwide depression. They want to know what I’ve done for them, and that’s why it’s important for me, any chance I get, to say that my number one job is to create jobs,” Reid said, blasting Angle for saying it’s not the role of government to create jobs.
The Limerick:
“But for me we would be in a worldwide depression”
said Harry the humble. He gave the impression
his job: Create jobs
for ungrateful slobs.
And “that woman” against him has recall repression.
Obama on Abraham Lincoln: A Limerick.
Excerpt from President Obama and First Lady Ohio Reception Speech October 2010 :
In the words of the first Republican President, Abraham Lincoln, who’d have a great deal of trouble getting a nomination in the Republican Party right now. (Laughter.) You know that’s true. (Laughter.) He said that government should leave to the people – let them do what they can do best for themselves.
The Limerick:
Of Abraham Lincoln, Republican first
Obama did mention, it was not rehearsed.
He was making the case:
In these tea party days
He would be rejected, scorned and accursed.
The Chamber of Commerce and President Obama: A Limerick.
White House senior adviser David Axelrod to US Chamber of Commerce: What Are You Hiding That You Don’t Want the American People to See?
AXELROD: Well I’m not demonizing the Chamber of Commerce. I’m simply suggesting to them that they disclose the source of the $75 million that they are spending in campaigns and put to rest, put to rest the questions that have been, that have been raised.
TAPPER: Isn’t that like the whackjobs that tell the president he needs to show them his full long-form birth certificate so he can put to rest the questions that have been raised?
AXELROD: The president’s birth certificate has been available to people.
TAPPER: The long form?
AXELROD: Someone once in the course of this debate about whether we should have a law to force these organizations to disclose where they’re money is coming from in the campaigns, someone said, and I think they’re right – “the only people who want to keep things secret are folks who have something to hide.” If the Chamber doesn’t have anything to hide about these contributions, and I take them at their word that they don’t, then why not disclose? Why not let people see where their money is coming from? -Jake Tapper: ABC Senior White House Correspondent.
The Limerick:
The Chamber of Commerce must open their books
to certify truthfully they are no crooks.
Well now, Mr. President;
Uncertified resident:
No longer we trust you just on your looks.
Is Mitt Romney the Republican choice? A Limerick
Can Romney dethrone “The anointed no-one?”
Campaigned very often, but seldom he won.
His own track record weak.
So we are up the creek,
less Sarah will enter and get the job done.
George Soros: Romney and Obama, one and the same.
Romney, Obama, they’re one and the same.
Not that much difference, except for the name.
Soros affirmative:
Romney conservative?
That is a title he never can claim.
Billionaire financier George Soros thinks that, if Mitt Romney wins the presidency, there will be “little difference” between him and Barack Obama in the White House.
Soros offered the reassuring news to liberals across Europe during an interview this week in Davos, Switzerland.
As policymakers from Hong Kong to Canada pressed Greece and its creditors to strike a deal to cut the nation’s debt, Soros pressed in on GOP presidential candidate Romney:
“Well, look, either you’ll have an extremist conservative, be it Gingrich or Santorum, in which case I think it will make a big difference which of the two comes in,” Soros told Reuters in a videotaped interview.
“If it’s between Obama and Romney, there isn’t all that much difference except for the crowd that they bring with them.”
Soros added, “Romney would have to take Gingrich or Santorum as a vice president and you probably have some pretty extreme candidates for the Supreme Court.”
“So it won’t be that great a difference,” he concluded, if Romney becomes president.
Talk radio host Rush Limbaugh described Soros’ move this way: “He’s endorsing Romney. ‘Romney, that’s cool, no difference, I could go either way that way.'”
Soros also told Reuters that many hedge fund managers in the United States are backing Romney because Obama wants to raise their taxes.
Soros predicted that “there won’t be a great deal of enthusiasm on either side of the battleground. It will be more civilized than the previous elections have been.”
