Cambridge Limerick

A friend, Noel Parmentel, passes on this limerick (with an extra parenthetical line to boot):

    WhiteHouse BeerBust 

A Harvard Professor called Skip

Was  busted by Fuzz for a Quip

Which contained a  >Yo Mama<

So  It took Young Obama

To try to  to  make up for the Slip

(by providing a BudLite to Sip)

Bud lite? How phoney is that?

Pete| 7.31.09 @ 3:01PM

Could have at least picked a beer from an American company what with all of his job creation rhetoric....

You'd thing that a Harvard professor and a Harvard lawyer would have the intelligence/education to know when TO KEEP THEIR MOUTHS SHUT!!!!

Most profs and pols I've dealt with believe, above almost anything else, that everyone is entitled to their opinions.

Shoulda had some Guiness - thanks Arthur!

Leon:
Don't know where you come by your idea but our colleges and universities are rife with academics who don't believe that. Read Accuracy in Academia or David Horowitz for specifics. Most kids regurgitate what's dished out for a grade and move on.

A cop came to look for a crime
Instead it was a waste of time
But a caller had used her phone
So the media was thrown a bone
By a drinker of water and lime

Different last line:

A cop came to look for a crime
Instead it was a waste of time
But a caller had used her phone
So the media was thrown a bone
By a man who is destined to whine
