Congress Loves Being Insured
(Healthcare: for them and theirs vs. for us and ours)

Public outrage against our public employees
Is bound to spill over onto John Boehner's crew.
Look how we decimated Democrat Blue Dogs
Who thought what's good for them is not good for you.

Will Boehner's Blue Dogs cut their very own healthcare?
The plans that we pay for to insure them and theirs?
Of course not!
Their concern is that they be the ones to stay healthy.
When has a Congress tried to answer our prayers?

Like Christine O'Donnell, they're reluctant to spend
Their very own money. What are campaign funds for?
Thankfully they have a wide choice of co-payers
And 'retirement' (we dumped them) benefits they adore.

Imagine a country where the only insureds
Are the rich two percent and the members of Congress,
Where healthcare providers, insurers and Big Pharma
Are forced to look elsewhere for financial success.

The lobbyist pressure to resume healthcare for us
Is sure to reduce Speaker Boehner to tears.
It's not just the proctologist to extract his noggin;
It's the loss in campaign contributions he fears.
