Self-Serving Politicians
Are Stupak and Lieberman stubborn or stupid?

Self-serving politicians –
    pigheaded to the end.
There's no way that they'll give in;
    there's no way that they'll bend.

They'll add their damn amendments
    to a bill that could have passed,
If they'd not been so stubborn,
    if they'd not been half-assed.

The Democrat who's that concerned
    with being re-elected
Forgets that if the main bill fails,
    his party gets rejected.

He'll be in a minority
    that gets next to nothing done
Except to make sure Lieberman's
    still Aetna's favored son.
