I got an email from my Uncle Al this morning...a rare thing as he usually communicates via land line and actual hand-written letters. But he sent this to me this morning and I thought it was worth sharing. I hope it gives you a much-needed chuckle and something to sing this weekend.
Mitt’s Favorite Things
(With Apologies to Rogers and Hammerstein)
Corporate loopholes and ways around taxes,
Devious tricks that distort what a fact is,
Billionaire donors with assets of kings,
These are a few of Mitt’s favorite things.
ambition and false accusations,
Arrogant words that offend other nations,
Limbaugh, O’Reily, and tea party flings,
These are a few of Mitt’s favorite things.

Bridge Version #1)
Goodbye welfare, so long health care,
Cut them to the bone.
I’ll just keep my profits and you’ll just stay poor.
So now you are on…your own!”
Bridge Version #2)
a thought for this November:
Mitt as President?
Think clearly and deeply and ask yourself this:
“Am I in the One..Percent?”
*
appeal to the bigots and racists,
Medieval thinking and “lie-to-your-face”-ists,
Ignorant voters of right-leaning wings,
These are a few of Mitt’s favorite things.

Thank you, Uncle Al, for the laugh.
