Of Groundhogs and the Grand Old Party

Another brutal primary with more shadowy money,
more vicious attacks from more unaccountable allies,
and a rich guy outspending another rich guy wins again.

We hear the same plans to help corporations & the 1%,
the same coded class war against the least among us,
the same fear-mongering around a war against religion
to distract & divide us & drum up the conservative base.

Another plea from Rick Santorum to be anyone's VP.
Another vow from Ron Paul that he'll win the next one.
Another smirk by Romney & grimace by Gingrich.

The GOP makes every day feel like Groundhog Day,
They're trapped in repetition & we're trapped with them
…which makes sense: they are a party that prefers
to relive the past rather than make any progress forward.

Until Newt sees his shadow and runs back to his hole,
find escape and entertainment in an enjoyable evening
at your local progressive social club.
