Just thought I'd engage in a bit of good natured boasting

Some clown in the Hannity website called on people there to make up a limerick or Haiku or some other form of poetry.
Now, I am not at all a poet but I was challenged....this is my entry:

There once was a man from Crawford
With an idea he eagerly offered.
Just make me your chief,
Even though I'm a thief,
So they did, and everyone suffered.


It wont get any sort of literary award but hell, I am damn proud of it.

That was inspiring -- I think you'll be seeing more limericks on your thread...

With an idea which he eagerly offers
Just make me your chief,
Even though I'm a thief,
and they did, so the thief filled his coffers.

4. Here's one
There once was a fratboy from Yale
Who knew nothing, 'cept how to fail.
He stole our democracy,
And championed hypocrisy,
So we ran his ass out on a rail.

5. There once was a creep named Jeb Bush
Who often grabbed Harris's tush
He told her to steal "it"
so that they could seal it
while democrats turned into mush

6. There once was a Chimperor who,
Was too stupid to know what to do.
He did as Dick said,
Went to war, ignored dead,
Then said, "Oops, that's an N not a Q!"

8. He stole the election in Broward
Then we got stuck with the coward.
He sat on his ass
In a second grade class
While the terrorists attacked both our towers!
