Why is this man smiling?

the continuing story

He should have cared about his constituent's silage,
Instead, he abused his Congressional privilege.
Oh so pretty,
But so petty.
Oh yes: he inflated reimbursable mileage.

The Great White Hope?

Let the revisionism [and redistribution] begin.

"Lehmeh see... Ah jes must have those sconces, an' those beaded lamp shades, an' that luuvly spray of pheasant fehthuhs. And oh my gracious, is that organza table-skirt real silk; if it is, Ah'll jes die to have it!  Mercy me, that dahlin' faintin' couch will fit right in mah office; Ah surely could use it when Ah git the vapors! An' ooh my, what's that over yondah? Are those the autographed copies of Men's Health?"

Sorry, 'treason' has only two syllables.

Sedition, sedition! Sedition!
Sedition, sedition! Sedition!

Who, day and night, must scramble for reelection,
Suck up to the rich men, have a little face time?
And who has the right as legislators
To negotiate with foreigners?  

The Senate, the Senate! Sedition
The Senate, the Senate! Sedition

Who must know the way to block the President,
And make him impotent?
Who must raise suspicion of his loyalty
So stupid people can be misled?

The Senate, the Senate! Sedition
The Senate, the Senate! Sedition

Who has time to read the Constitution,
And not play administration?
Who must pad his pockets, planning for the future
When incompetence and malfeasance are exposed?

The Senate, the Senate! Sedition
The Senate, the Senate! Sedition

Images of Putin emerge solving the mystery of his absence.
