"From Plan A To B"

(John Boehner takes his opposition over the cliff)

His negotiations troubled.
Solutions seemed so far away.
Even with his efforts doubled,
POTUS didn't want to play.
Things looked bad for his Plan A.
Mayday soon for his Plan A?

Party may have said they loved it,
But opposition wouldn't budge.
Did they have that long a mem'ry?
Who'd have thunk they'd hold a grudge?
Just because DeMint liked A?
Should have shooed DeMint away.

All the while he's cursing Norquist
For his fiscal power play.
Bushie also rates a mention,
For thinking no one needs to pay.
But neither had to sell Plan A,
The unpopular Plan A.

Facing much humiliation,
Sees his speaker's seat in play.
Boehner in sheer desperation
Switches gears to B from A.
Goodbye for this year, his Plan A.

Plan B encounters much dislike.
Would John stick by his guns for B
And be told to take a hike?

Rather hypocriticaly
R.I.P. short-lived Plan B
Along with the well tanned John B.
