Limerick Friday LIV: Republicans Stuff The Ballot — In Voting Booths And Bathroom Stalls


Looking to shake (hands) with voters in bathrooms at airports
Trying to avoid having his lewd conduct reach the courts
Now he wants to stay put in the Senate
Represent Idaho for more than another minute
Larry Craig was just checking young Republicans for genital warts?

Luciano Pavarotti has expired with a final wheeze
Survived by his doppelganger, Dom Deluise
That dude sure could carry a tune
With a tenor voice that could fill a room
He’ll be missed by the Maestro from Seinfeld and many overseas

A weekend trip to the deafening Death Valley
Jumbalaya and purple as far as the eye can see
See if Herbstreit once again disrespects App State
Or if he now has enough cupcakes for his plate
Lee Corso will be saying, “Not so fast” to Michael Vick’s Hokies

Jerry Lewis uttered a gay slur on his telethon
Had Jerry’s Kids asking, “What’s a fag, Mom?”
His punishment is acting in the French version of “Brokeback Mountain”
He’ll wear a beret and Liberace’s coat and splash about in a Paris fountain
You know Dean Martin’s laughing hard, even though he’s gone

West Virginia doesn’t have much more than coal
Now strip mining turns a mountain into a gray hole
When Ned Beatty squealed like a pig
Made in-breeding a topic that was big
W loves “Deliverance” but thinks the environment is just one more thing to be sold

Last week ...
