The Boston Marathon - "Book Him, Danno"

Friends of Boston's bombing suspect - shocked by recent news -
Can't believe Islamic martyrdom's a fate he'd choose.
Cambridge Rindge & Latin classmates say their friend,  Dzhokhar,
Was a scholar, stoner, and a high-school wrestling star.

Popular with fellow students; never gave a clue
Bombing Boston's Marathon was anything he'd do.
FBI has questions for him - before rights are read.
Dzhokhar tried to kill himself but shot his throat instead.

Looks like he'll stay silent now; forget Miranda Rights.
Any statements from Dzhokhar will be the ones he writes.
 John McCain and Lindsey Graham say he's an enemy;
Want to take away protections granted you and me.

I think it's a bad idea and isn't Boston's style.
Even British redcoats got a fair and open trial.
Kudos to our law enforcement; well and bravely done.
Please don't stumble at the end or terrorism's won.

The 112th Congress - Because They've Got Nothing Better To Do

US Ambassador to the United Nations - Susan Rice.  (Photo/The Telegraph)

What, exactly, is it that Republicans oppose?
Nomination that Obama has yet to propose?
Susan Rice read talking points.  It turns out they were wrong.
Now the rumors of conspiracy are going strong.

FOX News is all over it; they say Rice told a lie.
Went and spun the facts so they'd look better for her guy.
Claim she knew al Qaeda was behind the whole attack;
That her motivation was to have Obama's back.

Never mind the fact the CIA said it was them,
And forget the other Rice (the one who's not a Dem.)
This Rice had no luck at all when she went to The Hill,
Now the voice of opposition's started growing shrill.

John McCain and Lindsey Graham are sure it's all a trick;
And it looks like others may have joined their little clique.
I guess, with elections over, there's air-time to fill.
Crazy controversies give the FOX and Friends a thrill.

The Benghazi Conspiracy? (cont.)

John McCain and Lindsey Graham - opposed to Susan Rice -
Went before the media to offer their advice.
Said they'd block Obama if he chooses her for State...
Personnel advice from Sarah Palin's running mate?

Both men say that, after our Ambassador was slain,
Susan Rice was wrong and thus, according to McCain,
There is a conspiracy that rivals Watergate.
They want Rice investigated... Not the head at State.

I was once a fan of John McCain's.  Not anymore.
Chose him in 2000; would have in 2004.
Not the man he was back then; now all he does is grouse.
Maybe he'd like Rice if she saw Russia from her house.
