Rocco & Another Republican


ROCCO
Hey! I caught another! Only about seven Republicans in South Philadelphia, and I got one here!

ANOTHER
Consider yourself blessed.

ROCCO
Listen! Bush is heading for the exits and the big debate question is: Worst president, or Buchanan holds onto the title?

ANOTHER
Let’s be a little patient. Maybe we can nudge the Socialists aside who write the history books. Just maybe he’ll be ranked okay.

ROCCO
Well, don’t make the case now. I’m really not seeking to embarrass you.

ANOTHER
Uh huh?

ROCCO
And really, the more transcendent question is how much have Republicans stolen over the past eight years? Are we in the high billions range? Maybe a tril?

ANOTHER
Democrats don’t steal?

ROCCO
Awkwardly! Never as great an art form. We’re like Grandma Moses to your Michelangelo!

ANOTHER
Uh huh. Off the subject, Presidential might surprise you.

ROCCO
Not at all. Same theme. Grand Theft Ohio. Will it be enough this time?

ANOTHER
What you call theft, I call creativity.

ROCCO
Michelangelo, encore!

South Philadelphia’s Rocco, holding many opinions on varied subjects, disparages all things Republican .

Republican gets up & goes to work in the morning;

Well, that can require a little effort!...

The Pretty Girl

They'll never outlaw the pretty girl.
One in a commercial this instant, for-
get the inane scenario & useless product.

Unfair to girls my mother labeled plain.
Visiting Yale just after women admitted,
my son remarked They don’t hafta

look this bad. (The black carnation in
the armpit didn’t help.) But, many gals
get it every which way, don't they?

A man can resemble the asshole
of a southbound yak. Given a balance

The Big Small Town Banker


-The law as it's written now means we can absolutely
ruin this sonofabitch!

-Congress is working like hell to change it. Even Republicans!

-You mean back-stabbers. Well, anyway, too late for him.
I want him out on the street with his fat wife and bawling babies.

-Sounds like a cartoon.

-Life is a cartoon, or haven't you noticed?

Fly Upon the Fetid Wall



CHAIR
Greetings all! Although our estimable Miss Adinolfi is present
with her trusty recorder, I'm asking her to not to turn it on.

I'll get together with her after this meeting to work out
the minutes.

At any rate, the board has decided that the bonus structure
is the same as last year's.

AL
Well, that puts it to me. I had a much better year thus far.
Be edging close to four mil on the formula.

CHAIR
The formula doesn't work anymore. Not since the government has
taken us over. So, looks like three million for you again this year.

AL
Well, anyway, I'll bite the bullet in the knowledge that
Uncle Sap is paying.

CHAIR
We're moving very quickly on this, because some Congressmen
are making noises to cancel bonus payments etc.

AL
Never trust a politician who won't stay bought.

CHAIR
That's some old-fox smile there, Albert. Outgrowing, even,
the matter discussed.

AL
It's just that I relish getting it up John Q's ass.

CHAIR
Shhhhh!

AL
And relish further giving him an extra patriotic hump for all the Lefties
out there who are now being raped to pay my salary and this bonus,
however less than generous!

CHAIR
Meeting adjourned. Miss Adinolfi, bring your notebook
up here, please.

System's Called Capitalism

It's economic, not connected with
our political or moral life, really,
except by forced metaphor

of oily Babbitts. At any rate,
no virtues its way. We could
easily exist under Socialism
or a something else unknown.

Western Europe seems to prosper
under a more mixed system, for one,
medical care far superior. & a right.

So don't hand me sacrosanct horseshit,
anymore. Capitalism is kind to many,
brutal to more. Free Markets (sigh)

also Fuck Markets. My odd cure, though, is to let
it fly! Complete laissez faire. Belay decayed
hypocrisy! Capitalism should be interested in only

the bottom line. No gestures towards
Little League or charity golf tourneys,
or underwriting safe art & drama. Or any-

thing to do with alleged public good.
To counter the inevitable bull market in
the antisocial & rapacious, we need

strong regulation, overseen by
professionals, not legislators

who are bribed so regularly it con-
stitutes our most vitriolic joke. So?

If this latest reform fails, then
let's try Socialism. Oh I know
that the party leaders 'll

place their kids in the top schools,
gaming as corruptly, but...we're talking,
by then, about the nation’s abject

despair. Last stop before bloody revolution,
now insanely courted by government & their

Capitalist gombahs daily.

The Specialist


-Let's not bullshit anybody, I'm really black. Like inside of
cave, like shoe polish. I mean, I don't send much light back, except
from my stereotypical big teeth. Yahsuh! Yahsuh boss! Yahsuh!
At any rate, lighting will have to be even, and really penetrate, to show
I have a nose and mouth.

-I believe we can handle that. What do you offer besides...?"

-Sit angled behind your candidate. Wave flag, banner, whatever you
want. Or just react to what he says. I do a totally great slowwww-
sarcastic, for one. Damning the sleaze-bag opposition all the while
candidate murders ‘em!

-How much?

-It's three large for Democrats and five for Republicans.

-Why more for us? I... !

-Need you ask?

Ohio Vote Again


Sheriff Kelsey Nardo of Cuyahoga County, Ohio, still can't
find truckloads of Ohio's '04 presidential votes. "They've gone
missing, and it's three weeks now and not a lead, and...
well, how can this happen?"

The votes were on their way to the new state repository in Niles,
where Professor Status Appwell says, "We're all abject here.
Scholars would appreciate this treasure a hundred years
from today!"

The Professor then sounded a wry note. "Ohio! Where
the individual's vote is stolen twice!"

(Informed of this quote, Louisiana State Senator Nick Andrews-Heckler
laughed, “Twice? Hell, we’d just be getting started down here!”)

The Sublime Annals of American Ignorance


-Was a guy on the radio last night really pissed about
Barack Hussein Obama.

-What’s his problem? Anyways, I don’t give a shit about this Ay-rab crap.
He’s a half-nigger and that’s a half too much for me.

-He said that after a dirty bomb goes off, do you want Barack Hussein
Obama, or John Sydney McCain?

-Sydney? That’s a Jew name, right?

-Think so.

-Some fuckin choice!
