Posted over at TPM: An ode to Fox pundit (well, let’s say ‘pundit’, because ‘pinhead’ is so crass) Sean Hannity by Monty Python alum John Cleese:

Ode to Sean Hannity

by John Cleese

Aping urbanity
Oozing with vanity
Plump as a manatee
Faking humanity
Journalistic calamity
Intellectual inanity
Fox Noise insanity
You’re a profanity
Hannity

  4. Hillary’s Lament

    I could have won by thirty points!
    (I’m white, you may remember)
    and Bill would have his harem in
    the White House by December
    This frightening economy
    is ominous, not Obaminous

    If anyone asks for Hillary,
    I’ll be at the distillery

  5. Here’s a vital memo
    Of important talking points
    Don’t you ever argue
    With whom Pelosi anoints
    Any disagreement
    Proves you’re a head case
    Any opposition
    Must be based on race

  6. Ode to McCain

    The best
    that was in you
    is gone,
    gambled away
    on a losing
    hand

  7. Me thinks we are here now a book writing.
    Together, let’s many pages add.

  8. Ode to Sarah by Pat

    Sarah Palin

    You pale in comparison

    Even to Dan Qualye

    Whose pallial properties

    Were pallid

    Indeed

  10. ODE TO SARAH

    Palin? Spare us, O Lord (Say Amen)

    The toughest veep this side of your mother-in-law

    When the red phone rings in the White House at 3 a.m.

    She’ll rise up and fire her ex-brother-in-law

  11. Where is Ann Coulter
    on this election eve?
    She’s hiding in her lizard lair
    so wanting to believe
    that come the dawn on five November
    some out there might still remember
    her.

  12. Glad to see you herded that pig back into the sty. Reminds me of an article in The Nation a couple of issues back (a woman author whose name I can’t summon). She said Sarah Palin was exactly the sex symbol the right-wingers had longed for — better looking and more real than “those ghastly gasbags Ann Coulter and Laura Ingraham.”

  13. Pig? You do mean the one with lipstick and an adams apple the size of a hockey puck, right?

    Cheap shot I know. However, appropriate, eh?

    Comment by Mrs D. — October 16, 2008 @ 9:04 am

  14. Hannity? Insanity!
    McCain? Wrecked train!
    Palin? Trailin’!
    Limbaugh? Lord Ha Ha!
    Coulter? Shithead!

  15. Dickie, Dickie, Dickie
    You thought you were so trickie (sic)
    letting Scooter take the fall
    when all the time you made the call.

  16. Ode to John McCain’s buddies and backers in the top economic percentile:

    Enjoy the new taxes
    You jackaxes

  17. ODE TO THE ODISTS (above)

    Once the world lacked rhyme or reason
    And the White House filled with treason
    And the liars had their season
    while the commentators slept

    With your verses and your meter
    You have made the discourse sweeter
    So it’s time to sound retreat — or
    Taps — on all the Bush-Inepts

    Comment by Al — October 19, 2008 @ 10:55 pm

  18. There once was gal from Wasiller
    whose looks were said to be “killer”
    She and a DUDE produced a whole brood
    so, now she kills mooses for food.

    Comment by Mrs D. — October 20, 2008 @ 7:22 pm

  19. Cindy McCain,
    looked with disdain
    at the VP choice
    of her husband,
    McCain,
    For seeing a woman
    in such fashion distress
    Cindy decided
    she’d teach Sarah
    to dress,
    So off to Saks and Neimans
    they went
    And when they were finished
    $150M they’d spent.
    Cindy then ordered
    “Bring in best”
    to apply with such skill
    make up and lip gloss
    and botox to fill
    those tiny age lines
    that on Sarah’s face
    to Cindy were nothing
    short of disgrace.
    Now Sarah’s new look
    is all spiffy and polished,
    Why, her Wal-mart look
    has now been abolished
    And what did it all cost?
    oh don’t ask my dear friend,
    because it’s a lot more
    than you’ll ever spend
    on a car or a house
    a college education
    Or even a month long Disney vacation.
    Now this rhyme may be viewed
    as an unwarranted dig,
    but it just goes to show
    how you can package a ___.
