Dear Senator McCain... Thoughts and Prayers

 Image result for john mccain and hanoi hilton

Cancer, like Ted Kennedy's, has stricken John McCain.
It was just discovered but would probably explain
Why he seemed confused the day that Comey testified;
Symptoms of this type of cancer seem to coincide.

John McCain was legendary in my Navy days
For the courage, wit, and honor he always displays.
If someone can beat this cancer, John McCain's the guy;
Ask the Hanoi Hilton's staff...  The man's too tough to die.

The 113th Congress - A Sisterhood of Senators?

Image result for 20 women senators


Twenty women Senators...  I guess that it's a start.
Mustn't get excited; put the horse before the cart.
Just because they're women doesn't mean they'll all agree.
Still, I'm very glad that Warren's representing me.

She might soon be senior in a funny twist of fate.
Kerry, if confirmed, will leave to take the reins at State.
(Barney Frank would like his job, but doesn't want to run.
As of now, in recent polls, Scott Brown is number one.)

As the Senior Senator from Massachusetts, she
Steps into the shoes once filled by Teddy Kennedy.
Warren's smart; she'll learn the moves for Senate cloakroom deals,
And, like 19 others, she'll be making them in heels.
