As she exits stage left, we hear the haunting melody of Hillita’s fading farewell:
Please weep for me, Clintonistas.
The truth is I never left you.
Through each primary
I changed my image
To what the polls said
You wanted from me.Don’t gloat at me, Barackistas.
The truth is you came from nowhere.
When it was my next
You took it from me.
Why do this to me?
I barely knew you.Don’t trash-talk me, Obamistas.
|The truth is I’m just one of you.
I always have been.
Now that you’ve ruined me,
I’ll need some new perch
To keep on cackling.
Help rehab me, all you lefties.
The truth is you owe it to me.You mainstream newsies,
It’s you who made me
In your own image.
Now don’t forsake me.Say what you will, vast right-wingers.
The sad truth, I still have Bubba.
Or did the last time
I thought I saw him.
He owes me big-time,
That big-mouth loser.
-- John L. Perry, June 4 Newsmax column
