№ 432: The Parties Come Together (estranged bedfellows)

Remember when Republicans said,
“Sex, except in the marital bed,
was grievously sinful and therefore forbidden
and that such sin should never be hidden.?

Remember when only Democrats thought
love and/or sex should be openly sought
provided so doing caused no pollution
and did not screw with the Constitution?

№ 431: Better Yet, Leave It To Brett!


Judge Kavanaugh mentioned Renate Dolphin on his yearbook page, his lawyer said, because of one high school event they attended together “and nothing else.” Address and some names have been obscured.
New York Times

Oh, what a rascal
that Eddie Haskell* was
Smarmy polite,
with grown-ups in sight.
Otherwise, a deceiver.
He never fooled Mrs. June Cleaver.

His kind brings to mind
Brett Kavanaugh
who is also adept
at bending the law
of decency and of civility.
Denying all culpability.

When it comes time, 
the Senate, one hopes 
though underachievers 
will be Mrs. Cleaver's.
______________
*Eddie was known for his neat grooming—hiding his shallow and sneaky character. Typically, Eddie would greet his friends' parents with overdone good manners and often a compliment such as, “That's a lovely dress you're wearing, Mrs. Cleaver. However, when no parents were around, Eddie was always up to no good—either conniving with his friends or picking on Wally's younger brother, Beaver. Eddie's duplicity was also exemplified in his efforts to curry favor by trying to talk to adults at the level he thought they would respect, such as referring to their children as Theodore (Beaver's much-disliked given name) and Wallace, even though the parents called them Beaver and Wally.

An untrustworthy wise guy, Eddie could be relied upon to concoct and instigate schemes with his friends, schemes for which they would be in the position of blame if (and frequently when) they were caught.  Wikipedia

№ 430 Bonus—CORRECTION

Due to an editing error the link for email subscribers was incorrect. 

Email subscribers click here.

Back when our Brett was very young,
he was well built and so well hung
that all the girls loved what they saw,
they saw of raw Brett Kavanaugh.

He was pure steel he used to say

and with the girls he had his way.
Young prep school girls all stood in awe,
undid their bras for Kavanaugh.

The trail that he blazed is still there.

No one has dared since to disgrace his name.
If they ever tried he'd snigger,
They failed to figure I have no shame.

If this dishonor joins the court

there will be only one resort:
from Amazon to get a get a gun
and join the rev, Rev-o-lu-shun.

№ 430: Kavanaugh (and so many others) Explained

A man born to privilege
need never apologize
for anything — EVER! — at all.
What with this birthright
wrong is his right,
summer, spring, winter and fall.

As you may be aware
we do not really care
to be egalitarian
with vulgarian carrion.
Who, please excuse me,
DO NOT amuse me.

We Libertarians
despise proletarians.
They 
are in our way.
We 
expect respect.
They 
DO NOT genuflect.
A failing, we pray,
Judge K will correct.

№ 429: Brett Kavanaugh, He Will Deliver

(with apologies to author unknown)

Rip the Court asunder,
tear up settled law,
trash all rights and justice,
hide 'em in a drawer.
If you liked Steve Bannon,
you'll like Brett still more.
Worstest calamity
that you ever saw.

Girls run and hide.
Freedom go and shiver:
Brett Kavanaugh'll
sell us down river.
Oh, he's a sex abuser
and an All-Pro fabulator.
Oh, he's Christian bully,
an abortion liquidator.
He can't shake an honest hand
or look you in the eye.
But Trump wants him on the court.
Country's gonna die.

№ 428: The Law And Brett Kavanaugh (an immaculate deception?)


Deborah Ramirez, who attended Yale with Kavanaugh, has described a drunken party during which genitals were thrust in her face

Whatever Brett did
when he was a teen,
if it wasn't this stuff,
it was just as obscene.
THAT isn't the question!

BUT what he WILL do
if he's on the court
where everyone knows
he'll tack hard from port,
completing the Christian concession.
A Diós passive aggression.

A judge must be fair
an impartial umpire.
That is, after all,
what his job requires.
He must never consider
his likes and dislikes.
He has to show how
to call balls and strikes.
