Republicans are funny folks,
They practice what they preach;
They don’t win then convince themselves
Their goals are out of reach.
No matter how unpopular
The measures they enact,
They’ve made a true bond with their own,
And honor this true pact.
Democrats don’t act like this,
They’re of another order;
They, too, make lots of promises,
But honor them? Well, sorta.
They’d rather try bipartisan,
Seek always compromise,
And when the other side don’t play,
Think: “Gosh, that’s a surprise.”
I’m not attracted to the right,
Their goals have me a’fearing;
But watching my own side at work
Has rendered me despairing.
