None of Obama’s minions know
Any behavior but the crude-
Punctilio is never addressed
And interactions are rude

They don’t seem to understand
The reason they were hired-
Sebelius says she doesn’t work
For those who want her fired...

Who does she think she works for-
Space aliens, a private concern?
She works for us, and screwed up
As it is time for her to learn..
