“The political and commercial morals of the United States, ” observed Mark
Twain, “are not merely food for laughter, they are an entire banquet.” Indeed, with that
spirit in mind, GOOD GOLLY, IT’S GOVERNMENT FOLLY pokes fun at our system
of government and politics through a poetic and mirthful lens. The potpourri of verses
presented, patriotic or just plain satirical, entertains in a light-hearted manner the
American history of government, the Presidency, our many scandalous events,
Congress and Senators and Representatives, the often adversarial political parties,
the Supreme Court, all sorts of other governmental offices, the always controversial
mass media, political nicknames and traditions, and our memorialization of American
history.
Here is an excerpt from a selection lampooning the Presidency, entitled
“TO IMPEACH OR NOT TO IMPEACH: THAT IS THE QUESTION”.
“Impeachment is a tumultuous event for sure
And thus it has not been a common thing,
As it startles and jolts the country
And forcefully rocks the West Wing.
High crimes and misdemeanors, you ask?
Why Donald Trump must have done them with every task!
He misled the nation with bleach and refusing to mask,
Only in disgrace and infamy will the 45th President bask.”
