Rating Agencies Play For Pay
Making more trouble for Bushie's legacy

Was it Moody's? Was it Fitch?
    It wasn't Rod Glabojevich
Who conned Paulson with a plan
    to re-rate mullahs in Iran,
Upgrading them to triple A
    so they'd use their funds to pay
Harry Reid's vindictive friends
    Glabojevich's greed offends.

Who'd have guessed Standard & Poors
    would balk and signal Bush, "Up yours",
And then downgrade to triple B
    defense firms Bushie felt were key
To arm Hamas and Israel
    while Cheney's bragging "What the hell…"

Still Bushie's legacy amasses
    points among his upper classes
As long as he can duck the onus
    of Paulson's billion dollar bonus.
