Trumped By An Oompa-Loompa?
Orange John Boehner slips Obama a couple of mickeys

What the Hell's he been doing? Has Obama been trumped?
Not by The Donald, but by Orange John,
Whose one goal in life is not to be dumped –
But who, without grease paint, appears wan and drawn.

Did Bush leave Obama his rose-colored glasses
Along with his saw and brush-cutting shears?
Has he time to clear brush and kick enough asses
To help Oompa-Loompa realize his worst fears?

But too little too late for John to eat crow?
Look what that old Oompa Loompa's proposed –
Something Obama should have done long ago –
Tell Summers and Geithner that they're being hosed.

Can he do it now? It still needs to be done.
But just the thought of seeing Orange John gloat
Would be appalling - a weird grinning sun.
Till Orange John's gone, looks like Rahm missed the boat.

Now Oompa-Loompa swears he is content to
Let Democrats fight about taxing the rich.
But if push comes to shove, he would agree to.
It's a win-win for Orange John. Ain't that a bitch!
