Again, I am no Calvin Trillin, but here is some verse regarding the King of Pork re-asserting his hold on the bill by Obama and Coburn to set up a searchable database of Federal spending. I admit rhyming "Alaska" with "has ta" is a bit of a stretch, but here goes.
The King of Pork
or
We're on a Brige to Nowhere
They sent a cost-benefit analysis
To Stevens (R) Alaska
Thinking now he just has ta
Put an end to the Senate's paralysis
Stevens apparently thinks it unfrugal
For we citizens to know
Just where the tax dollars go
Simply with a point, a click and a google
So the upper chamber gets nothing done
The status: the norm
He's placed a hold on reform
The King of Pork--a majority of one
