Stayin’ Alive

Hillary Clinton is recovering nicely from a fall, and may or may not be well enough to testify before Congress about the now almost four month old Benghazi consulate killings. But she was well enough to testify until very recently, and did not do so. Why? The whole purpose of stonewalling the Congress on testifying about Benghazi is stayin’ alive for 2016. In the meantime, what was it about the Benghazi consulate that the entire Obama administration lied about it for months? Was it, as one little slip of the tongue might indicate, a secret CIA prison? A secret prison where rough interrogation took place? If so, and I believe that it was, then even after being safely re-elected Obama cannot risk enraging his far Left base. And Hillary can’t tell even now because she wants to be president and she can’t get the nomination without the far Left base. Will we ever know what happened and why? Only if the country elects a Republican president and Congress, so the answer is, no we will never know.

 

Mrs. Clinton thinks Benghazi

Rhymes with simple words like hazy

Because hazy is her memory of events

Yes it happened on her watch so

The mere fact it was a botch no

Blame can be placed on her fair head or on the gents

Who while under her direction

Undertook with circumspection

To be guileless as a baby’s dreams in bed

With results that were most tragic

But the press through lefty magic

Has erased the memory that four guys are dead

A concussion is the cause she

Cannot testify a pause she

Thinks will get her off the hook on 20 Jan

In addition a bad cough is

Bound to last till she leaves office

To begin her campaign where last time she ran

Yes the Clinton wheels are spinning

This is only the beginning

For when Bubba gets involved he’ll give ‘em hell

But they can’t count out Obama

Who has promised his sweet mama

That the next prez of the US is Michelle

 

Waltradamus 2013

Waltradamus has seen his reflection in the Mall wishing well, and now knows what will happen in 2013.

 

MALI

 

Will the French go into Mali?

One can only think what folly

It is Indochine without a mountain view

But the Frenchmen they will rally

In some Atlas Mountain valley

And will hope it’s not again Dien Bien Phu

 

FINANCIAL CLIFF

 

Had the cliff been any higher

We’d have gone from pot to fryer

But the landing was as soft as it could be

The economy was roaring

With Obama’s rating soaring

And the only drawback we’re no longer free

 

EURO CRISIS

 

Yes the Euro is in crisis

And the rolling of the dice is

All that’s left for them to try to stave off gloom

If the Germans close the spigot

And if Merkel tells them friggit

Then there’s nothing left to save them from their doom

 

2013

 

2013 will be over

In twelve months of rolling clover

And we’ll all be happy that Obama won

With inflation we’re all wealthy

With ObamaCare we’re healthy

Nonetheless I’m glad I went and bought that gun

 

 

A Mayan Retrospective

Well, we survived the Mayan calendar crisis, and it’s time, now that we are in the New Year, to look back on the Maya and their calendar and the just past Christmas season. A gentle reader named Christine sent the following the day after the end of the world:

 

Me-oh Maya
What a liah!
Said it was the end
(not true)
Next day dawning
Stretching, yawning
Predictions on the mend
(not new)
Fears abating
Folks awaiting
Disaster round the bend
(to rue)
Love a crisis
Fake suffices
Convictions we defend
(no clue)

 

To which I responded:

 

‘Twas the day after Maya

And all through the house

Not a creature was stirring

‘Cept me and my mouse

Just surfing the web

To see if we survived

And when I saw Drudge

I cheered and high fived

I never did think

That the Maya were right

Although I confess

‘Twas a long sleepless night

But when the next morn

Dawned clear, crisp and dry

The Maya I cursed

I had presents to buy

For Christmas was due

And on schedule arrived

And discovered ’twas Christmas

That no one survived
