Attention: Barbara Boxer, Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden

by Tony Peyser

When every Republican every day
Shrieked about Bill and his Monica fling
Senator Joe Lieberman, Scold-In-Chief,
Was standing proud with the far right wing.

When he had a chance in the VP debate
To tell Cheney what every Democrat thinks
Joe chatted with Dick as if they were
At a Neo-Con party having drinks.

There's another thing "Joementum" does
Which results in left wing profanity:
His frequent bashing of Democrats on
His regular visits with Hannity.

Despite all this, Barbara, Chuck and Joe
Are happy to help put the fix in
They look like Sammy Davis Jr.
Giving that infamous hug to Nixon.

Their blind embrace of Joe is creepy
And so obvious that we all have seen it
They're like abused wives who often insist
"Yeah, he hit me but he didn't mean it."
