Traveling With The Newt
(Instead of with…)

Newt Gingrich is more than a little ticked off.
Obama and family didn't take him along
When they flew to Brazil with The Mother-in-law.
Is The Newt now X-rated? Has he sung his swan song?

Doesn't Newt know it's a family outing
Right in the midst of the Libyan crisis.
Not just another occasion to dawdle
But a chance for another of Newt's huge sacrifices.

What's wrong with the Pentagon and with its brass?
Action in Libya will facilitate more
Flights for The Newt in the family baggage.
He's faced that kind of ignominy before.

More flights also means a need for lots more four stars.
As support for Karzai's corruption winds down
They'd better butter up someone's mother-in-law
So, when she travels, she leaves that someone in town.
