"Murdering By Executive Order"

(More efficiently than with Wayne's assault weapons)
(But who is he targeting?)

Who knew Obama would kill thousands more children
In a year with one ill-considered executive order
Than Wayne LaPierre assault weapons will in quite a few,
Unless our war with the Kochs becomes a ripsnorter

As they keep paying POTUS for less regulation
So he forces his EPA chiefs to resign
Just to finance his inaugural shindig
Where the air's so polluted the sun's reluctant to shine.

Or is his agenda term limits, not billionaires and sick kids?
Is his goal to get rid of the Congressional geezers?
It's an awfully broad brush that Obama's using.
His own party has plenty of past their use-by-date wheezers.

You're sitting at home with an NRA arsenal.
No one's coming or gong. Not a robber in sight.
You're too short of breath to want to go hunting,
Plus the game are all gasping. It's a helluva sight.

With less clean hot air to breathe, there are lots fewer speeches.
Even politicians appear to have shut up overnight.
His executive order's brought us more asthmatic fatalities,
But has also brought on an age of Rhetoric Lite.
