Poor Joey you have indigestion
How dare a constituent question
When all of us know
The wisdom of Joe
Goes as deep as a housefly’s erection
As child supporter you’re deadbeat
As genius you’re locked in a dead heat
With Herman and Rick
You all don’t know dick
Which is right-wing conservative red meat
You stiff your ex-wife and three kids
(Though you drag down two hundred thou per)
You weasel that you’re on the skids
You’ve nothing for them or for her
So the Family Research Council folk
Goes to you in some sick right-wing joke
Hallelujah, amen, praise The Lord
Your screaming should be in a sound booth
You fume and you shout when around truth
You flail and you spit
You’re funny as shit
You really belong in a clown suit
You’re fat Grover Norquist’s pet monkey
You’re just one more neo-con donkey
You’re lint to be brushed
You’re waste to be flushed
Just like every dumb Koch Brothers flunky

Barking In The Dark 
A woman who went to high school with my husband is a huge fan of Rep. Walsh. It’s the most perplexing thing. If I were a confrontational sort, I would simply ask her how she can overlook is raging hypocrisy and his assholish behavior. I don’t bother asking because I’m sure she has a readymade excuse. And it would prompt me to tell her how stupid I think she is so I follow the rule that says if you don’t have something nice to say, ect.
As it is, I see her positive comments about him on Facebook and think that this is one fucked up world we’re living in.

I couldn’t restrain myself from actually calling his office in D.C. the other day after I saw the video on AlterNet and logging in a comment. This guy may actually be the biggest ass in Congress–and God knows, that’s saying something.
