Obama’s performance is that of a wimp,
He answers a question with:”We’re buying shrimp”.
It is clear he can’t talk
At the same time as walk.
For attributes his we must add the word “limp”

The Mosque and church at ground zero. Limerick.
On September 11 a Greek Church was crushed.
To rebuild or not, the permit stays unrushed.
That’s normal bureaucracy.
In Barry’s thugocracy
Build a Mosque, not a church, that decision is rushed.
Update:
LOWER MANHATTAN — The St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church, destroyed on 9/11, will rise again at the World Trade Center site, thanks to a new agreement announced Friday, Aug 12 2011.
The deal — which envisions a 4,100-square-foot church at 130 Liberty St. just east of the new Liberty Park — ends a years-long dispute between the Port Authority and the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America over where and how to rebuild the house of worship.
A Limerick on Congress reconvene.
The U. S. House was on recess when Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) ordered members to scurry back to Washington on August 10 2010 to do what they do best, spend taxpayer’s money by approving another bailout, this time for states that have been derelict in controlling their own spending on government worker pay, benefits and pensions.
The call-back session was to vote on a $26.1 billion bill to bail out state governments (The Senate passed the legislation on August 5th.). The bill was approved by the House on a largely party line vote.
According to Fox News, some Democrats and advocacy groups are “outraged” because “the bill also requires that $12 billion be stripped from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly known as food stamps, to help fund the new bill.” Is taking $12 billion from the Food Stamps program in order to pass it to union jobs the new Obama plan to redistribute wealth?
Reconvening of Congress, their action quite speedy
To bail out the unions, they all are so greedy.
Harry, Nancy and Barack
Act together as a pack:
Take it from food stamps; who cares ‘bout the needy?
Michelle Obama in Spain Limerick
Michelle was escaping last summer to Spain
Our country is mean, so the reason is plain.
With many a friend
She spends without end.
With our land in anguish she flaunts her disdain.
More jobs for GM – in Mexico! A Limerick.
More jobs for GM – in Mexico!
From the Wall Street Journal:
U.S. automobile giant General Motors Co. said Aug 5 2010 it plans to invest close to $500 million in its Ramos Arizpe plant in northern Mexico to produce a new line of engines as well as a new vehicle…
“We estimate that these technologies allow for a 9% improvement in fuel efficiency from current engines,” Lieblein said, adding that the investment will directly create 390 jobs in Coahuila state, where Ramos Arizpe is located.
GM is building a new plant in Mexico,
My head is spinning, I am getting vertigo
They’re spending our money
In places more sunny
No wonder we’re asking: Where did our jobs go?
Obama’s mother Limerick.
Responding to a Freedom of Information Act request, the State Department has released passport records of Stanley Ann Dunham, President Obama’s mother – but records for the years surrounding Obama’s 1961 birth are missing. The State Department claims a 1980s General Services Administration directive resulted in the destruction of many passport applications and other “nonvital” passport records, including Dunham’s 1965 passport application and any other passports she may have applied for or held prior to 1965.
The Limerick:
.
.
Stanley Ann Dunham, her records are lost
Vital statistics conveniently tossed
The papers are gone
When she birthed her son
All the conspiracy buffs are engrossed.
Limerick on the words cojones and cajones.
Cojones, a word that is great
Its meaning just dawned on me late.
Obama the fool,
What caused them to drool;
In One word did Sarah negate.
I listened to the video with Mike Wallace Sunday Aug 12919 where he asked about the Arizona situation Sarah Palin’s answer was: “Jan Brewer has the cojones that our President does not have, to look out for all Americans, not just Arizonans, but all Americans in this desire of ours to secure our borders and allow legal immigration to help build this country.” Listening again to the video she did say cajones, not cojones. From Wikipedia we get the explanation of the difference: In US slang, cojones denotes “brazen, brave attitude”, pronounced /kəˈhoʊneɪz/ and /kəˈhuːnəz/ in English. Contextually, its usage is like that of the Yiddish chutzpah (nerve), the French couilles (gonads) and the Finnish sisu (perseverance). A common euphemistic misspelling of cojones is cajones (furniture “drawers” and “wooden box drums”, see cajón).
In light of this, the Limerick changes somewhat:
Cajones, a word of some weight
Spiced up with pizzazz the debate.
Obama the fool.
What once made them drool
Did Sarah with ONE word negate.
Ode to an unprecedented president. A Limerick Song.
Unprecedented, Unprecedented. Everything this president does is “unprecedented”. I’ll show you what’s unprecedented!
Ode to an unprecedented president.
.
Obama’s election was unprecedented
The love from the people is well documented
The oath was in vain
He took it again
Repeat without Bible – that’s unprecedented
.
No sooner in office he debt-load augmented
The stimulus package was quite corpulented
The bill, signed before read
Keeps his friends well fed
The rest, go get lost! That is unprecedented.
.
The minds of the healthcare bill’s authors demented
Its complexity is quite unprecedented
No doctors on call
The Pols did it all.
They must have been drinking some quaff quite fermented..
The oil spill made Mexican Gulf oh so scented
The scope of inaction was unprecedented
They didn’t react
Kept up the Jones’ act. Their incompetence level unprecedented.
.
And Shirley Sherrod to her audience presented
Disdain for the folks that are much less pigmented.
They gave her the heck
For fear of Glenn Beck
The speed of her ousting was unprecedented.
.
That wasn’t at all what she just had presented
Redemption was what all her audience resented.
Instead of the heck
They asked: Please come back.
That too was for presidents unprecedented
.
In this little song we have now documented
Catastrophes many quite unprecedented
Insanity shelve!
In 2012 Go vote,
make this President unpresidented!

The jet on e-bay Limerick.
There once stood a corporate jet in Anchorage,
When Sarah took reins of the State she had courage.
Without a delay
she put on e-bay
that state-supplied jet on Ted Stevens, Anchorage.
(Ted Stevens International Airport, that is)
I have researched matters further, here is version 2 of the Limerick.
There once stood a corporate jet in Juneau,
and Governor Sarah – “you Betcha ” you know
without a delay
she put on e-bay
that fuel-guzzling state-supplied plane in Juneau.
Those were two of the only three airports in Alaska with runways long enough for the W III jet.
Update: While it was put on e-bay, the sale of a corporate jet is a little more complicated than processing it thru PayPal, so the deal was finalized using a broker.
Ode to Nancy Pelosi, Limerick song.
LEFT: Nancy Pelosi tries her best to explain her strange behavior.
RIGHT:Question: Why does an American Woman Infidel do the sign of the cross in the great Umayyad Mosque in Damascus Syria? Answer: Nancy Pelosi does the sign of the cross to pay her utmost respect to the skull of John the Baptist. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi looks at the tomb containing the head of St. John the Baptist inside the historic Umayyad Mosque, during her tour at a popular market in downtown Damascus, Syria, Tuesday April 3, 2007.
(President George W. Bush criticized the trip, saying it sends mixed signals to Syrian President Bashar Assad. )
Nancy Pelosi became speaker of the house in Jan 2007. What power does she have anyhow?
Let us take a look at the U.S. Constitution:
Section 7 – Revenue Bills, Legislative Process, Presidential Veto All bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills. Section 8 – Powers of Congress The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;
How has our economy been performing since she took the reins of the purse strings? There is an interesting article by Mark Trumbull, Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor / February 21, 2007 : Despite the ongoing costs of US military campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan, the outlook for the federal budget has grown substantially brighter. Tax revenues are rising much faster than spending, according to Treasury Department numbers released last week. The recent trend is strong enough that, were it to continue, the budget could move into surplus in barely a year, one economist calculates. Already, the federal deficit is shrinking toward about half the size that it has averaged since 1970, when analyzed as a percentage of gross domestic product. The shift reflects a strong economy, with higher incomes and corporate profits generating a bigger flow of tax revenue. In turn, the Treasury’s progress could help the economy by buoying investor confidence in the nation’s fiscal position. Some experts say the budget could achieve balance in the short run of the next few years. In unveiling its proposed budget this month, the Bush administration forecast black ink on the federal ledger in 2012. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO), in its recent annual outlook, also shows a surplus for that year. So, after three and a half year of Nancy Pelosi, how are we doing? I can only say it has gone from good to bad to verse:
Ode to Nancy Pelosi, 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 a great hate dissipater.
