Poem - The Worst Scandal Ever

Remember the most famous BJ in U.S. history?
Monica working on Bill in the Oval Office
That simpler time, way back when
Before Bush, before 9/11

The press fulminated
Blathered
Salivated like a famished dog over a slab of raw liver
Hillary called it a “vast right-wing conspiracy”
Kenneth Starr snooped in the Arkansas woods
And White House trash cans

Monica, 24-7
Monica, where are you tonight?
Monica, where is that dress?

Isn’t it nice that we’ve grown up
Moved on
Evolved
Turned the page on a new day:

Water-boarding
Guantanamo
Abu Ghraib
Extraordinary rendition
Invasion and Occupation
Domestic spying

Rumsfeld
Cheney
Scooter
Rove
Alberto G

Members of the Bush syndicate
The gang
The junta of disregard

McGwire
Sosa
Lewinsky!

Remember?
Remember the BJ and the vanishing cigar?

It was the worst scandal ever
