The News in Limericks
To save Jayne the trouble of moving the other thread to D & A, I thought I'd start a new one here.
Poor Kavanaugh started to cry. “My life is destroyed by a lie! It can’t have been me, ’Cause my friends all agree I was drunk as a judge that July.” ******************** “Unfair!” the Republicans cry. “Judge Kavanaugh’s our kind of guy. Young Brett didn’t do it, But if he did, screw it – All boys will be boys when they’re high.” ******************** “What we want”, the Republicans drool, Is a Judge who will act as our tool. Merrick Garland? Too smart. Need a man with no heart Who’s a liar, a cheat and a fool.” |

Donald Trump did not jump at the chance
To salute US war graves in France Since the bad weather there Would have mussed up his hair And uncovered his glabrous expanse. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...-a8627571.html |
