Oh, those politicians are quite entertaining, aren't they?
His political lips iced
to keep secrets from the public. 
Although they are concealed
as best they can be,
some are bound to escape. 
Thus, they cease to be secrets
and morph into super-lies. 
He tries to avoid this,
for, he is not the best liar;
he usually gets other men
to do it for him. 
Generally, he hides
from the public;
he quite enjoys a good vacation. 
His least favorite thing to do is
stand behind that dreaded podium
and be forced to explain why
he didn’t do something good,
but something twice as bad
in half the time.
