Great excitement! Mysterious contrail off the California coast. Was it a missile? If so, who fired it? No one knows. Some say, with great authority, that it was a jet contrail, that the perspective makes it look like something it isn’t. What the government is reluctant to say is that it was a missile, and that it was launched by submarine. But whose submarine? Verse-afire has its suspicions.

Yankee think we Charley Chan

No washee if no tickee

If you can do then so we can

We sneak up and be tricky

Our submarine he creep along

Until he see the U S

He laugh because he not belong

The gai jin he be clueless

He think the Chinese be the one

He think we be forgetting

We not forget, the Rising Sun

Be rising, not be setting

Oh yes, you bomb and paper sign

We bow and smile, it ended

But not for those who most condign

Not over, but suspended

And now we show what we can do

To land of milk and Fonda

We laugh as launch into the blue

The first one billionth Honda

The election is over, and the good guys won. Economic conservative Democrats are in open revolt against the Dem Progressive elites who have driven the party to the edge of the cliff, and Dem politicians in red states who adopted the fig leaf of opposition in principle to the Progressive agenda while voting for it were swept away. And good riddance.

They hid beneath the threadbare leaves of figs

They hunkered down in golden DC digs

With elephants now dancing merry jigs

Dem grins are now a frown

The left is screaming madly “We were right!”

The non-left Dems have given up the fight

The Dems were done after that lovely night

They’re all run out of town

A massacre is what we had in store

Past time the people evened up the score

Cry like the fearsome raven, “NEVERMORE!”

And kick them while they’re down

The election is over, and so is the reign of the liberal left. They had a good run, from 1933 to 2010, but their time has run out, our money has run out, and our patience has run out. In those 77 years the left has turned the country almost into something it was not in 1932, and what the country was not was a European style socialist country. And now, thanks to Barack Obama, the country has wakened from its long slumber, watching, all unnoticed, the Left slice off one freedom after another, like slicing one thin slice of salami at a time. But thanks to Obama’s impatience, thanks to his impetuous demand that the socialist revolution be completed on his watch, we have wakened, and the salami slicing is at an end. The Left has been handed a stunning defeat, and it is unclear that they will recover any time soon. The new Congress will have its work cut out for it, repealing the socialist medicine bill that was rammed down the throats of an unwilling people, and we now have the votes to prevent further destruction of our freedoms. I can only say, Praise the Lord, that I lived to see this day! 

As dark night comes down

On that Federal town

The pillars of leftism shake

They tremble and weep

For the fall is too steep

It’s enough to keep lefties awake

Tax and spending is done

A long ride and great fun

For apostles of power and greed

But it’s over, my friend

This is clearly the end

So we wish you a hearty god speed

As you leave we will ask

That you complete one task

A task for each laddie and lass

As you go out the door

Will you please just once more

Shove your finger deep into your ass
