A Show Of Hands?
A conundrum for sitting Senate Republicans

Please, could we have a show of hands?
    Just sitting on them's ill-advised.
How can you synchronize a scratch
    and not risk being satirized?

Dirty fingers? Dirty minds?
    They'll wonder what you're up to.
Perhaps a knuckle at the most
    despite John Boehner's facial hue?

Is John the kind of bad example
    you'd set for our nation's youth?
How can a herd of headless wonders
    be headed towards a voting booth?
