About this pResidential fart story:

[bleever]

Back in early 2005, I posted this Gilbert and Sullivan parody about the blivet, not knowing how true in fact it was:


When I was a lad
I made my way
By making all the other bullies bray.
I laughed at anyone poor or smart
And I answered my professors with a well-timed fart.
(He answered his professors with a well-timed fart.)
I treated all my betters contemptuously,
So now I am the leader of the world that's free.

1. Most excellent-nom! Modern Major General, PofP, or from what?

Gawd, that picture! Visions of grandeur for the little, little man!:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

2. Too early to be number five.

Oh, better fart to live and die
Under the brave black flag he lies,
Then lays a sanctimonious fart,
With a pirate head and a pirate heart.

:hi:

3. My eyes! My eyes!

Little man is right.

4. HE IS THE VERY MODEL OF A GOVERNMENT EXECUTIVE

He is the very model of a government executive
His language it is doublespeak, his better half is decorative
He claims to be immaculate, his record stands for all to see
And shining through it all is his incredible mendacity
As to administration, why, his cabinet’s impeccable
And human progress, not for profit, gleefully deemed wreckable
Ambition is his only creed, his means are reprehensible
His policies will ruin us and are clearly indefensible.

(chorus)
His policies will ruin us and are clearly indefensible.

To right his wrongs may prove to be a sheer impossibility
Especially when he claims to bear no share of culpability
He’s clearly on the road to making miseries subsecutive
In practice he has been a very awful chief executive.

(chorus)
He’s clearly on the road to making miseries subsecutive
In practice he has been a very awful chief executive.

He’s very good at stoking fears and chumming with the media
His public lies are legion, they could fill encyclopedias
He’d like to see the end of what we call the social safety net
And finance his adventures with a generation’s unpaid debt
He’s not above accepting an anointment of divinity
While strutting off to further demonstrate his masculinity
By bullying and threatening, two tactics quite indicative
Of George’s nature, which is clearly cruel and vindicative.

Republicans, now heed me well, you bear responsibility
And Democrats who traffic with him will reap our hostility
Protect our nation now and please defend our Constitution
Or America will be facing its own final resolution.

5. "And Democrats who traffic with him will reap our hostility"

Yeah, Joe, we're talking to you.

That's great, Sydnie. Thanks for raising the level of discourse on this thread.

15. Damn but I am IMPRESSED!

:applause: :applause: :applause: :applause:
A take-off of Gilbert and Sullivan's I am the Very Model of A Modern Major General from
Pirates of The Bush Administration Penzance
Not only flawless scansion, rhythm and rhyme, but message right on target...

Unfortunately, I missed the first part of it, but maybe someone will upload it to Youtube!

11. Merci, chat.

Funny in an "Airplane" or "Austin Powers" way.

10. This definitely rates a K&R ;-)

[bleever]

12. What

a sig line you have.

:)

[Kailassa]

16. Thank you,

fellow piece of the infinite.

13. You making fun of President Pootin?

[bleever]

14. What if our president had the smarts of

a KGB man like Pooty-poot, instead of a drunken frat boy legacy coaster?

Hey, a fella can dream can't he?

[alfredo]

17. I bet Putin isn't Pootin in public, nor would someone of

his position would be using farts to assert his authority.
