Herding Enchiladas
Large Political Consultant
-I thought you were done when you predicted
your party’d prevail for the next fifty or
so years. And your vaunted clock got cleaned
in the very next election!
-Hey! You win some, you lose some. And some
are called off because of rain.
-Of Stupidity, rather.
-That too.
-And now here you are, bigger than ever!
-MONEY! I got our important boys and girls
together and explained that’s what it’s
all about! And forget the rest.
-Then, the Supreme Court affirmed your
distinguished thinking.
-They found, in their wisdom, the side their
bread was buttered on.
-And yours?
-Definitely mine.
-Thus, we’re all frantically running in a race
nobody wants to be in.
-Speak for yourself. God made the world.
-Doing you a helluva favor!
-It’s about favors too.
-Tammany Hall, blown up to mega proportions!
-Super Mega!
-A Black Hole! if you ask me. Where the
one-percent of the one-percent buy
elections outright! Like estates or limousines!
-Or politicians? So? Wake up and smell the
greenbacks! Ahhhh!
Labels: bought and sold, Citizens United, favors, Money as Speech, money in politics, one-percent, political corruption, Supreme Court, Wake up and smell the money
