South Carolina Losers Addison Graves Wilson Sr. & Marshall Clement Sanford Jr When we hear "South Carolina", our reaction is, "Oh, no! Isn't that the state that lets its losers run the show?" Where Addison Graves Wilson Sr.'s mommy is to blame, And Southern aristocracy will never be the same. Was Addie not brought up to be respectful of superiors? Aren't Carolina mommies taught to whup their sons' posteriors Whenever they speak out of turn and disrespect their betters, In a state becoming famous for Republican trendsetters? A Kruschev temper tantrum that only lacked the shoe, Yet was the next best thing a barefoot Southern boy could do – An absence without leave to pursue a Latin lover, Unaware his marriage and career would not recover – Are any fools applauding them, especially the bit That none of this is reason for louts like them to quit? Mark's Peronist affiliation hasn't gone that well, Though Addie's Commie immitation does fine despite the smell. They've made South Carolina someplace no one cares to go, A Cheney undisclosed location, "Home to Mark and Joe."
