Nomination Blues When you’ve tried to form the best team you can muster But the Democratic Senators are determined to filibuster And accusations against your Cabinet choices top the news You’ve got a nagging case of the nomination blues Only ten days before the champagne was to be uncorked Your Labor Secretary goes and gets ‘borked’ How ironic the manner in which she was snared Eight years ago it was she who criticized Zoë Baird. As if the campaign weren’t enough of a trauma She hid the fact that the help was from Guatemala Little did you know the honeymoon would end after Xmas Things sure must have been a lot calmer back in Texas As soon as you hoped to avoid another legislative fight You find your Attorney General snuggled up to the racist right, Your HHS choice was rather tight with tobacco While Interior sounds like a Watt-style wacko Much more of this and the GOP may begin to cry foul As rumors say the Lebanon PM gave graciously to Colin Powell And if the allegations against your picks continues to mount These proceedings might yet prove as good as the Florida recount |
