Mister-you picked the WRONG reason to be here,the WRONG man to screw with,and the WRONG time and place to screw with him. You’ll be leavin’ now…
Despite a hefty cover charge, folks came from miles around to watch Ludmilla, the pole dancing desert tortoise.
Opening day of the Race to Castrate Harry Reid.
“Come and listen to a story ’bout a man named Reid
A lying politician known for corruption and greed
Then one day he figured how to steal
A whole buncha land through another rotten deal.Blame the land tortoises, turtles need solar power too
Well the first thing you know there’s suits and counterclaims
Reid’s getting ballsy like he thinks he’s Jesse James
The steers are almost gone, it’ll be all over by next Monday
When he pisses off a rancher by the name of Cliven BundyHard ass, eats nails, spits tacks
So Reid sends in his boys and there’s snipers on the hills
People gettin’ tasered so the cops can get their thrills
But ole Cliven and his ranch has been there for near forever
So he calls for help – hey – ain’t that mighty cleverOK … I was reaching on that last rhyme, so sue me
A lot of patriotic folks are so mad that they’re steamin’
They travel many miles to give the BLM a reamin’
There’s threats all around but cooler heads prevail
And those BLM boys, well now they’re settin’ sailBack to Bullshitland, mind ya don’t bother comin’ back now, ya hear?”
Kelly is in 5th place, with one #2 vote and 2 points. Here is her caption:
It only takes ‘ONE’ to make a change-it’s a bonus when you have friends who believe and stand beside you!
Well done, everyone!
