OK - It's a little forced, but it stays with the meter and the message. With profound apologies to Alfred Lord Tennyson, I present the modern-day version of - The Charge of the Light Brigade
Half a lie, Mostly lies, Completely lies onward
All in the Party of Trump, sat more than 200
“Forward the Right Brigade!”
“Charge Adam Schiff!” Trump said
All in the Volley of lies, rode the 200.
“Charges for the Whistle-Blower”, he said
Was anyone even dismayed?
Did anyone even care why?
Mitch says “Theirs but to do or Die!”
Into the volley of lies
Stood the Right Brigade
Charges from the Left
Counter Charges from the Right
McConnell in Front of them
Volleyed and Thundered
Into charges of Misdeeds Laid
Right into the lap of Trump
But firm stood the Right Brigade
Giuliani to the Right of Them
Pelosi to the Left of them
Donald in Front of them
Blasted and Thundered
Obstructions and Testimony laid bare
“Not truth” they’d in unison yell
Told Lies till the final bell
All of the Right Brigade
Denied all the truths laid bare
Denied as they breathed in the air
Senators and Congressman
Charged “it’s the Democrats that lied”
while
All the nation wondered
Cast lots of mirrors and Smoke!
Not ounce of truth they spoke!
FOX News and CNN
Blasted each other’s gall
And then they all voted
“No” said the Right Brigade.
Oh, when can their mockery fade?
Oh what a shambles of our Constitution they made
“Oh the wild charges!” they brayed
While all the world wondered.
Honor the verdict they made?
Honor the Right Brigade?
Surely not to the Right Brigade.
