Taco Bell

Prices rise
Prices fall
What are the causes?
Do you know?
Some say demand
Some say supply
OPEC and Big Oil
Government taxes
Speculators and speculation
Weather and seasons
Maintenance
War and peace
And rumors thereof
Natural disasters
Acts of God and man
Where can you get
cheap gas?
at Taco Bell

Born in Hawaii
Of parents disparate
Educated here and abroad
Hawaii, Indonesia, California,
New York and Massachusetts
He worked in the heartland
He organized with a heart
Then he declared his intent
To serve a greater community
Thus he serves us all today
Will his service be rewarded with success?
Will his service be rewarded
With four more years?
Only time and tide and you and I will decide.
Forward to four more years.

Members of the christening party for the guide...

Members of the christening party for the guided missile destroyer JOHN S. MCCAIN (DDG-56) pose for a photograph after the launching at the Bath Iron Works shipyard. They are from left to right: Sen. John McCain; Mrs. Roberta McCain; Sidney McCain; Meghan McCain, maid of honor; and Cindy McCain, sponsor and wife of Sen. McCain.

It’s so sad that John McCain didn’t work for Bain while Mitt did. There would have been so many rhyming opportunities.

like their Spanish branch:

The Bain in Spain
Stays mainly in the plain
The Bain in Spain
In Spain, in Spain
The Bain in Spain
Stays mainly in the plain.
And who worked for
the Bain in Spain?
In Spain, in Spain?
McCain, McCain.

Kazoo

How black was the kayak
How blue was the kazoo
How brown was the nose
How red was the rose
How pink was the skink
How orange was the bowl
How purple was the grape
How great was the ape
How tall was the giraffe
How later was the alligator
How wide was the river
How high was the sky
How round was the ball
How square was the nerd
How bright was the sun
How dark was the night
What did the Indian say?
How now brown cow.

Yes, we can

Official photographic portrait of US President...

Three mighty triumvirs
Boehner, Cantor and Ryan
Ruled the House with skill.
It was their delight
To kill every Democratic bill.
They exercised great skill
Until they met their match.
President Obama had had his fill
Of dilatory delay and obfuscation.
“It is time to serve the nation,”
He said and they knew he meant it.
He took his case to the voters
And they renewed his lease at
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue
For four more years.
Yes, we can, yes we will
Re-elect President Barack Obama.
