The Tea Party On ‘Colored People’

July 16, 2010 Buck Banks

We’ve often accused them of stupidity,
And violence, laziness and cupidity.
We’ll be the first to admit
We can put up with
that shit,
But we just can’t stand it when they act all uppity.

Sarah Palin’s raking in loads of cash,
And she’s doling it out in a flash.
But is it eleeomosynary
Or for something more scary?
Like erasing our collective memory cache …

One Hot Trio

July 9, 2010July 10, 2010 Buck Banks

In Cleveland they are cursing the Heat.
In Toronto they call it a cheat.
But no matter your rant,
You still have to grant,
Signing Bosch, Wade and James was some feat.

Doing the Dozens

July 7, 2010July 7, 2010 Buck Banks

Michael Steele started some kind of drama
When he said the Afghan war was Obama’s.
The Democrats went all ballistic,
Calling for Steele’s head on a stick,
As debate sank to a series of “Yo Mamas.”

The Tea Party’s Over

July 2, 2010July 2, 2010 Buck Banks

Lindsay Graham said that the tea baggers
Are a bunch of losers and slackers.
And according to Gallup,
They’re a statistical blip —
They’re just Republicans who are birthers and ranters.

There’s the Rub

June 25, 2010 Buck Banks

We could speculate, but what’s the use,
About what Al Gore did with that masseuse.
When she gave him a rub, he
Tried to get lovey-dovey.
Do you think that boring façade is just a ruse?

Farewell to Harms

June 24, 2010 Buck Banks

His comportment was military and manly.
In Afghanistan he proved to be handy.
But when his hail-fellow banter
Turned to cant, swipes and chatter,
Obama said, “You’re outta here, Stanley!”

No Take-Backs

June 23, 2010May 22, 2014 Buck Banks

How did he feel when he got off the phone,
After the President ordered him home?
I bet General Stanley McChrystal
Felt regretful and wishful
He’d never said what he said in the pages of the Rolling Stone.

So Sorry

June 22, 2010 Buck Banks

It’s a fact of Republican biology,
Never say “sorry” when you can use a tautology.
Then along comes Joe Barton
With contrition by the gallon:
He apologized for an apology’s apology.

CEO Life Advice

June 21, 2010 Buck Banks

BP replaced its principal player,
And tossed the oil spill to the Prez with a prayer.
Said Hayward to Barack:
“Old bean, get your life back,
“Head to the World Cup, blow a zuzuvela!”

Dishonest to a Fault
Buck Banks | Jul. 22, 2026

From Trump’s “stolen election” lies, we can’t get no relief,
He carps on about stolen votes, but he never names the thief.
Somebody needs to tell this guy
Americans aren’t buying his lies,
And that he’s turned us into the United States of Disbelief.

    $4,600

    President Donald Trump is asking for $1,500,000 million for the military for next year. That’s close to $600 billion (adjusted for inflation) more than we were spending on the military in fiscal year 2025, before Trump took office, Alternet reports. This increase is huge by any measure. It comes to around $4,600 per household. It is around 8% of the total budget.

    61% to 35%

    Wall Street Journal: “Around 40% of voters in the 2024 election said the economy was their top issue, far outstripping any other matter. And those voters favored Donald Trump by 60% to 38%. Many say they were moved by his pledges to tame inflation, rebuild U.S. infrastructure, cut red tape and trim government waste. … About a year and a half later, more voters disapprove of Trump’s handling of the economy than approve, 61% to 35%, an average of polls by the Cook Political Report found this month.”
