GOP Bailout Take, Palin on Michigan, and the Keating Five -- Verse-Case Scenario by Tony Peyser

The Republicans' Take On The First & Second Bailout Plans

"This is greedy and bloated!
It's just awful! Put a fork in it!
($150 billion in sweeteners?
Thanks for putting pork in it!")

Palin Sends McCain A Note Online To Not Abandon Michigan

This Hockey Mom's dumber than a hockey puck
And a seriously misinformed female:
Most Americans are aware that her running mate
Is totally unfamiliar with the "e-mail."

Palin Brings Up Obama Acquaintance Bill Ayres; So, Let's Talk A Little About Charles Keating

Back in the 1980s
Was the time when he
Caused 20,000 seniors
To lose every penny.

For this crime, into prison
Keating had to enter.
What was he to McCain?
He was John's mentor.

McCain's involvement here
Wasn't exactly fleeting;
His wife & father-in-law gave
300 thousand to Keating.

These ties will come out and it
Makes me go, "Whoa there!
Did John and Sarah really want
People now to go there?"
