Wooden words snarled/

To cower behind the whip/

You must live in fear/


Big O rejects Dick/

Stride into the gale head up/

Fear, not how we roll/

Clear course, now the fight/

Deeper into blue water/

Big O sets a line/


Rush to his judgment/

Chief bully bites ego bait/

His words weigh him down/


On deck a calm O/

Ego sharks thrashing deeper/

Tide rise lifts blue wave/


Dittoheads cry cry/

Rally round champion mouth/

All anchor, no boat/



rush limbaugh hates obama

These first two are from user renovation.  Titles, links, and images were added by me.

A broken toilet:

from Bachmann’s mouth – a shitstorm

Joe Plumber can’t help


 

 

De-meaner

Grouchy McFreaky

twitching, blinking, scowling, stop!

Barack, you’re so cool

McCain on taxes is a tease

Cindy’s cash bought him life’s ease

He thinks you’re dumber

“She’s like a plumber!”

Don’t touch her riches – please?!

“Heh heh heh”, “my friends”

Beavis meets Grampa Simpson

Angry, tired, sad

Walk, chew, gum the truth

Cheeto talking points – wink wink

Drool cup free - she wins!

Decency drops in

Fear and anger lose their bite

The eyes have it
