The New Pelossus [Dan Collins]

Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
“Keep ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free . . .
Oh, heck, just give me all your money!”

    You maniacs! Damn you. Damn you all to Hell!

    Although, if we stuck a 300-foot-tall Statue of Pelosi at half-mile intervals along the southern border, we would eliminate our illegal immigration problem overnight.

    “Ai-yi-yi, la bruja es muy fea!”

    Thanks to whomever fixed my atrocious spanglish grammar. It truly is teh suck. Guess 3 years of HS Latin isn’t a substitute.

  4. Sticky B says:

    Proportionally speaking, a 300 foot Pelosi would have to have 7.5 cubic yards of fake titties. I’d pay a sizeable cover charge to see that shit.

    And the botox induced look of perputual astonishment might serve to boost your ego every time you dropped trou…Or meebe not; it all depends on the accompanying utterance…

    That statue blinks more than SanFranNan.

    Followed your link JD, and laughed quite hard. Thanks. Hope you’re feeling better.

  8. JD says:

    Mossberg500 – Almost back to normal, thanks. Been on the road for work, and have not had a chance to visit with y’all.

    The advances in nano-technology have been a boon to the heavily botoxed and face-lifted, allowing unseen hydraulic systems to spray saline solutions on the eyeballs, and work the eyelids.

    See Glenn Reynolds about that.
