Calling Chuck Berry!

Help me, information, get in touch with my Marie
She’s the only one who’d phone me here from Memphis Tennessee
Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi Bridge

Help me, information, more than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree
And tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee

Good lord – he has chutzpah!!! Say, when’s his term up? And did his constituents know about his unusual living arrangements?

This is just a bit reminiscent of the defendant who murdered his parents and then sought mercy from the court on the grounds that he was an orphan.

Geez, another democratic politico being picked on by the judicial system. Will it ever end. Would love to see what would be happening in the MSM if he had an (R) after his name.

That is way too complicated. I wonder if this guy talks in his sleep. I wonder if he is afraid to go to sleep.

Once again I learn something new on your blog, Roger. I always thought of this as a Johnny Rivers song, but I see that Chuck Berry actually wrote it.

I wonder if the lawmaker in question had himself in mind when he wrote that legislation. Kind of a conflict of interest. :-)

Given recent history (Martha Stuart, Bill Clinton) these allegations are nothing but a qualification enhancement.

I predict Ford’s stock to rise, along with more allegations of amorous dalliances and fathered children. The more the merrier.

You just can’t make this sh*t up to be any more ridiculous…

No wonder writing fiction is so tough.
