Twas the Night Before Impeachment….

Thanks go to J. Soden for this gem….

‘Twas the night before Impeachment,
When all through the House
Not a creature was stirring, not even a Louse.
The articles were hung, by the gavel with care
In hopes that some votes would be cast there.
The Democrats were nestled all snug in their heads;
While visions of victory danced in their heads;
And Nanzi with her dentures, and Nadler in his drool,
Had just settled their brains for a long winter’s rule,
When out of the polls there arose such a clatter,
They sprang from their hubris to see what was the matter.
Away to Windows they flew like a flash,
Tore open the screen and booted up the stash.
The full weight on the breast of the new-fallen news,
Gave a lustre of midday to subjects who knew,
When what to their wondering eyes did appear,
But the IG Report and 17 little fears,
With a terse answer here so lively and quick,
They knew in a moment he must be a prick.
More rapid than eagles the defectors they came,
And they whistled, and shouted, and called them by name:
“Now, Schiff! now, Nadler! now Nanzi, you Vixen!
On, Comey! on, Stelter! on, Cooper and Blitzer!
To the top of the capitol! to the top of the hall!
Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!”
As leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky;
So up to the House floor the Liars they flew
With articles full of ploys, and their reputations too—
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the news
The panic and polling of each little stooge.
As I scratched my head, and was turning around,
Down came the drool from Nadler with a bound.
He was dressed in those pants, buckled under armpits,
And his clothes were all rumpled from dribble and spit;
A bundle of papers he had flung in his sack,
And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack.
His eyes—were so hollow! his jowels, how dour!
His cheeks were so ashen, his pout so sour!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a sow,
And the spittle on his chin made him resemble a cow;
The stump of a tooth he held tight in his teeth,
And the stench, it encircled his head like a wreath;
He had a broad face and a huge round belly
That shook when he mumbled, like a bowl full of jelly.
He was chubby and plump, a right ugly old troll,
And I laughed when I saw him, get up and then roll;
A blink of his eye and a twist of his head
Soon gave me to know he was very near dead;
He spoke no sense, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the articles; then turned with a jerk,
And sticking his finger inside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the nostril it rose;
He lollygogged to his team and gave a gavel,
And away they all flew like a motley rabble.
But I heard him exclaim, ere he hobbled out of sight—
“Tomorrow we vote just out of spite!”

    Brilliant! Thank you J. Soden.

    Jack, would you mind if I edited this to break it into stanzas so as to make it more readable? Not a word will be changed.

      Thanks, folks! Wasn’t me – I just found this post on Breitbart, but it wouldn’t come over when I tried to paste. So, emailed it to Jack to see if he could post it.
      Glad y’all liked it!

    Can’t stand Hannity’s constant talking that takes up the airtime for his guest, who I want to hear. But, have to give credit where credit is due.

    The Vindication of Sean Hannity: A relentless pursuit of the truth.

      Yeah, that bugs me too, Hannity yapping his head off instead of interviewing his guests in depth. I wish he would just shut up sometimes. Especially since he mostly repeats himself over and over and over…

      Nevertheless, the Mueller and IG reports have vindicated him and the Lame Stream looks exactly like what it is, a load of fake news, frenzied, mindless get-Trump rats in the tank for the Rat Party.

      “It is no overstatement to say that the mainstream media is guilty of professional malpractice.”

      No, not at all.

      “It is nothing short of stunning that other media outlets — from CNN and MSNBC to ABC, CBS, NBC, the New York Times, and the Washington Post — all out to get the president, repeatedly ignored not only the facts behind the FBI–DOJ attempt at a coup d’état but even — make that especially even — turned their backs on the opportunity to get the facts.”

      Yep.

    • Chris says:

      Why didn’t Hannity disclose that he was a client of Michael Cohen’s during the time he was defending Cohen and Trump’s actions in the Stormy Daniels case every night on Fox?

      This was a huge conflict of interest and it would not have been tolerated by any other network. But Fox News continues to employ him.

    • J. Soden says:

      Mike Huckabee tweeted this Monday morning:

      NJ Dem Rep. Jeff Van Drew, who voted against the impeachment inquiry, reportedly plans to vote against impeachment & switch parties to the GOP, which prompted 5 of his staffers to quit. He’s not even a Republican yet, and he’s already saving the taxpayers money!

      You go, Governor!!!!
