The Laughing LeaderA Poem by Elton CampWhat's that sound coming from the White House?The Laughing Leader By Elton Camp For the last few months in the White House Things haven’t been “quieter than a mouse” Goings on, for the president, are hard to beat You can hear him laughing out to the street “Those clowns think they’ll turn me out. But of that I have the greatest of doubt.” “I need only sit back here and just relax While they give each other fatal whacks.” “So many millions they are having to spend They’ll be broke ere the campaign will begin.” “I’ll have no need, at them, to throw any dirt. For each other they have already badly hurt.” “Mitt a religious fanatic I won’t need to call For the public has already heard of it all.” “About Newt I don’t have to hint at adultery. For it’s been in the news for the country to see.” “Perry can’t remember what he want to say. Nobody wants a president who’s that way.” “The Christmas presents they’ve give me Let me laugh, snort & smile with glee.”
