Roll Call.
When Ted Cruz displayed his sang-froid
The liberals could only say, “Wha?”
He was speaking the truth
Said the mods were uncouth
Teddy has that real je ne sais quoi
I moved the furniture around in my office to give it more sang-froid.
David Lazar Sang Froid
Oh, it happened in Vienna, not so very long ago,
When not too many folks were getting sick
That a starving young physician tried to better his position
By discovering what made his patients tick.
Oh, Dr. Froid, oh, Dr. Froid
How I wish that you’d been otherwise employed,
For the set of circumstances sure enhances the finances
Of the followers of Dr. Sigmund Froid
He forgot about sclerosis, but invented the psychosis
And a hundred ways that sex could be enjoyed.
He adopted as his credo, “Down repression, up libido,”
And that was the start of Dr. Sigmund Froid
Now he analyzed the dreams of the teens and libertines
And he substituted monologues for pills,
He drew crowds just like Wells Sadler, when along came Jung and Adler
Who said, “By God, there’s gold in them thar ills.”
They encountered no resistance when they served as Froid’s assistants
As with Ego and with Id, they deftly toyed.
And instead of toting bedpans, they bore analytic deadpans
Those ambitious doctors, Adler, Jung, and Froid
Now the big three have departed, not so the cult they started -
It’s been carried on by many a goodly band,
And to trauma, shock, and more shock, someone went and added Rorshach
Now the thing has got completely out of hand.
Now old men with double chinseys and a million would be Kinseys
Will discuss it at the drop of a repression;
I wouldn’t be complaining, but for all the dough I’m paying
To lie on someone’s couch and say confession.
Oh, Dr. Froid, oh, Dr. Froid
How I wish that you’d been otherwise employed,
For the set of circumstances sure enhances the finances
Of the followers of Dr. Sigmund Froid.
Carly displayed sang-froid in last night’s debate. In fact all of the candidates looked good, but Rubio and Cruz really shone.
“Sang-froid”, translated more literally from the French, would be “cold blooded”.
When I got home from work, I turned on the TV to see what is going on in the world, and saw that the debate last night was more a debacle-especially for the moderators-and Jeb appears to have looked like a spoiled kid again...
It seems that in the debate
The objective was to ask
Such ridiculous questions
Candidates took mods to task
All the sang-froid was in
The hands of those running
And the moderators’ bias was
Nothing less than stunning
The candidates and audience
Called them out on the mess-
But if that causes changes
Will just be anyone’s guess...
Glad to hear your kiddo will be coming home-will they be living in the same town with you in future?
Wow, she must have shown a lot of sang-froid:
