Karl Rove's 'Tom Deweys' (Donors Beware!) How many 'Tom Deweys' is Karl Rove supporting? It isn't his money so "Donors Beware!" So should we voters for whose votes they are vying. Skip the damn middlemen. Pretend they're not there. If they insist money's the key to our system, Let donors ply politicians and voters with cash. To Hell with the ads and the lobbyist leaches. Boehner's a sucker for greenbacks and sourmash. Had you asked Bushie or Rove for a prediction Of how they thought Lee and the Rangers would do, They'd have been more than happy to wager your money, Making the Rangers a 'Tom Dewey' for you. Truman topped Tom to the pollsters' surprise While holding a "Do Nothing" Congress at bay. Now Republicans threaten to pull a Newt Gingrich And shut government down if they don't get their way. Since two thousand and six they've "worked" five days a week With lots of time off to perfect saying "No!" But with Boehner and Cantor? Back to Tuesdays through Thursdays… And you thought Republicans were raring to go? So why all those requests for campaign contributions That we've received lately in unwanted e-mail? Must we support the Karl Roves of this country Who equate money with ads with voters for sale?
