Losing Advisors And Adversaries
He can't lose enough

Who picks which advisors Obama should lose,
Assuming there's no one he's willing to fire?
Yet if he wishes to be re-elected,
No way can he wait for Salazar, Summers,
    Jackson, Lubchenco, Browner and Geithner
    to pull a McChrystal and choose to retire.

They're all proven losers dragging his numbers down.
So will Blackwater's drones have to target them all?
But, please, after Republicans like Mitch McConnell
Who never know why, yet refuse to play ball –

Why partner with Mitch, a fatuous hypocrite,
But expert naysayer, perhaps one of the best?
He won't have a clue but he'll still be against it.
Does someone else like it? That's his litmus test.

A pol with no platform – that's what Obama faces.
Yet he's told mediation with Mitch will succeed
By the same fool advisors in Blackwater's sights.
Quick pull the trigger. Don't let Mitch intercede.

Can't Obama see that they're working against him,
Secretly, subtly – check what they have to say.
Or maybe they're not. Perhaps we misjudged him.
Is all D.C. under the Salahis' sway?
