"The House Speaker's Speaking"

(But only to Cantor)

"Representative Cantor," said House Speaker Boehner
"Enough with the banter. No one digs a complainer.
The Senate has spoken and Grover's spell's broken.
There's no way he can sack us, and he's got to pay taxes!

"His fall from the cliff is a when not an if.
You'll miss him? Fine, but get back in line,
Or before this is o'er, there;ll be room for lots more
To join him at the bottom, and boy have we got 'em.

"Your Tea Party ranks are too full of cranks.
As you surely know, a lot more have to go.
Can they join DeMint, or was that a misprint
That those who weren't jailed all will have bailed?

"Our think tanks appear to have thunk themselves out.
What terrible timing for them to be in a drought
Liberal think tanks will have figured it out
And blame our climate change, without a doubt.

"With directions from Shell we'll see Arctic ice melt.
Say,'Sayonara, Snowbirds from the former snowbelt.'
I'm not happy at all with the cards Bushie dealt…
Say, did you also smell just how horrible Florida smelt?"
