E-mails, Shme-mails

House Republicans, eager to see

Clinton embroiled in a damaging scandal,

Found the FBI's findings

On her e-mails too hard to handle.

 

Trey Gowdy, the ghost of Congress,

With tactics matching his pasty look,

Is obsessed with manufacturing

A way to prove that Clinton's a crook.

 

This obsession with Clinton's server,

This paranoia, this mad fixation,

This desperate grasping at straws all have

The goal of character defamation.

 

Much ado about nothing, really.

A storm in a teacup. A giant yawn.

Let's get down to real issues.

E-mails, shme-mails. Let's move on!
