2011 White House Holiday Poem (unemployment, Christmas, vote, tax)

[LynnHarris]

As crazy as things are now in this country, including waiting on the final vote on the payroll tax cut and UI benefits...this poem still managed to bring a smile to my face




Twas the Night Before Christmas
2011 White House Press Basement Version by Greg Clugston



‘Twas the night before Christmas and in the White House,

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,

In hopes a payroll tax cut soon would be there.

There were holiday treats, made of veggies and grain,

No sugar allowed in the anti-obesity campaign.

The president was sleeping – all snug in his bed,

As low unemployment numbers danced in his head...

Let's keep it in the political forum where it belongs.

I see you don't think this one pertains to any of those other controversies, at all. Oh, it does belong here and there is so little in it about anything political other than the campaign.

This is linked to in the "Unemployment forum" Neither the poem, nor the link belong there.
