Barney Frank retires. So long. Farewell. Auf Wiedersehen. Adieu.
Barney’s Vice
By Asher
Embry
There once was a Member named Frank
Who almost destroyed every bank.
Was his wont to inveigh.
Fought to shield Fannie Mae.
In fact, all of his policies stank.

Counting the Costs of Clintonism
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.

Your words about Barney, how sad,
As a taxpayer I'm really MAD!,
He'd be better off dead,
Lets cut off his head,
That troll and despicable cad!

Only kidding about cutting off his head, it rhymes.
