Our bankrupt bankers

POSTED: Sunday, February 22, 2009
The bankers are a powerful lot
Who manage to call every shot.
One thing that we need to see
Is the end of their financial oligarchy.
Treasury wants to set some rules
But the CEOs have the tools.
For every rule that we invent
Their crafty lawyers will circumvent.
Let's stop giving deference
To the CEOs' incompetence.
Their greed we can take no more
So let's kick their asses out the door.
In voting for you, was I nuts?
President Obama, show some guts.
If you can't figure it out, then here's the scoop
The fox will be guarding the chicken coop
