The Deadline Poet Is Really Chillin' Or His Name Ain't Calvin Trillin!

Today's offering from this blog's poet laureate is a sestet that reveals the Dumbos/Teabaggers at their best as constitutional experts. However, truth be known, all of the loons are guilty of High Crimes and Misdemeanors and their most significant offense is that they are still breathing. If this is a (fair & balanced) illustration of misosophy, so be it.

“Some Republicans Nurture Dreams of Impeaching Obama”
New York Times headline

The limits of our patience have been reached:
Obama simply has to be impeached.
High crimes and misdemeanors? Yes, this traitor
Must have them. We’ll produce a long list later.
For now, we say he has to get the sack.

[Calvin Trillin began his career as a writer for Time magazine. Since July 2, 1990, as a columnist at The Nation, Trillin has written his weekly "Deadline Poet" column: humorous poems about current events. Trillin has written considerably more pieces for The Nation than any other single person. A native of Kansas City, MO, Trillin received his BA from Yale College in 1957. He served in the army, and then joined Time.]
