Mule Skinner - The Politician, Yorktown Disciple

Mule Skinner

(The Politician - When the People are the Mule)
- often referred to as: grandstander, agitator, instigator,
radical, grovel, parasite, boot licker

A legislator lives for the world of Milk and Honey,
Robotic-like, begs for votes and shills for money.

He lies to your face while shaking your hand,
Believes his leadership is superlative and grand.

A lawmaker asks forgiveness after using poor judgment,
He does not give up his position or ask for atonement,

A parliamentarian sells his soul for pennies on the dollar,
He grovels to be identified as a serious scholar.

A politician will vote to raise your taxes unfurled,
He uses public funds to fly around the world.

A good politician will malign, cheat, or steal upon command,
He will ream the Constitution and be proud of his stand.

A lawmaker never leaves the public trough, only when he dies,
He continues to suck goodwill while hiding, yet, even worse lies.

A great politician learns to rape the private sector,
Without conceding his pants dropped below a critical vector.

He epitomizes the worst traits in the human condition,
He helps to explain why America is seeking contrition.

Yes, politicians are never good - forever and always ugly,
They are leaches on the middle class; they smile very smugly.

And because there is no accounting in our government pool,
Politicians will continue on forever, to make us the fool.
