Bushy-Tailed Cronies
Washington reeks of cronyism
A trait methinks un-ethical
So closely linked to phony-ism
Of politicians path-etical
A crony not well certified
To legally adjudicate
Can't be judicially qualified
To act as a Supreme Court magistrate
With all due respect to Miss Meirs who
Most non-partisans agree
Was not suited for the job she aspired to
As the Supreme Court nominee
Her paper trail, inauspicious
For both right wing and left
Her resume, not propitious
As a justice she wouldn't be deft
This nominee, another Bush blunder
To add to his "Shock and Awe"
He's made good thinking folk wonder
What new blunders he has in store
Cheyney, Rumsfeld, Rove and Rice
An unfortunate White House blend
Bush might do better without their advice
But they're his cronies to the end
