An Open Letter to Kevin McCarthy

 

An Open Letter to Kevin McCarthy

 

Listen kid,

I’m not going to ask you

What you sold to gain that gavel,

Because my concern is not what,

But whom.

We know.

You may not know we know,

But we know.

And it was us, Speaker,

It was us.

Now you’re in a fight

For the soul of this country,

And just because you have sold yours,

You can’t have ours.

We won’t allow it.

You know how it took 15 votes

To get that hammer?

It’s going to take us one

To take it away,

And kick your ass to the curb.

See, you are not applying

A principle central to your life

To your current predicament.

A principle that is going to decide your future

Right now.

See, there is one area

In a person’s memory

That can go long and long:

Did ya mess with the money?

Did ya short the pocketbook?

Did ya empty the belly?

And when the answer

To those questions comes up “yes”,

The answer to a House GOP

Is going to be “NO.”

So kid,

Kevin,

You going to deal?

Or get dealt out.

That decision is yours to make,

Right now.

Once you make up your mind,

We’ll let ya know.

We’ll let ya know, kid.

Choose wisely…
