THE HOUSE OF THE FALLEN SON
There’s just one, house left, in New Orleans
A victim of the Fallen Son
He’s been the ruin of many a poor folk
The cleanup, has barely begun

His mother, is an elitist
Said “flood’s good, for those, without means”
“Here’s money, to buy Neil’s software”
Down in drowning Orleans

Now the only thing the Ninth Ward needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
And real bright lights for a visit
From our born-again, ne’er-do-well, drunk

Oh mother, tell your children
To make sure, that they vote Blue
Or they’ll spend their lives in misery
And learning, how, to row crew

Well, I got one finger, in the levee
The middle one in the air
And it’s aimin’ right at Dubya
Who sends, his faith-based, prayer

There’s just one, house left, in New Orleans
A victim of the Fallen Son
He’s been the ruin of many a poor folk
And God, I hope he’s done

========================================

HELP DEMS WIN BACK THE HOUSE: I attended a fundraiser for Joe Courtney --http://joecourtney.com/ -- last evening, an excellent Democratic candidate for Congress, who’s challenging Bush loyalist Rob Simmons in Connecticut’s 2nd District. If you’re looking to make a contribution to a contest that’s very winnable —and that can help recapture the House — this would be an extremely wise choice.
