As a critic of Barry—a Zoilist
I vilify each Barack loyalist
Who has made him a king
And by kissing his ring
Democracy’s killed by the royalist

There once was a president so pissed
By a reporter he deemed a zoilist,
“The deal with Iran
Is my legacy plan”,
So your carping is hereby dismissed.

I was also going baseball...I thought of Zoilo Versalles and maybe how he was such a critic of home-country Cuba that he came to the US to play ball. Or maybe how Twins fans were carping critics of his error-filled defense (most errors in AL from 1965-67), despite becoming the first Latino MVP in 1965.

The ballerina spilled lubricant all over her pristine white tutu right before her big performance on stage ... so they needed to print a whole new Zoilist for the Swan Oil Spill.

My ill tempered governor attracts a lot of zoilists. I don't see him breaking through

A+++ I don’t see Kasich emerging from the back of the pack at all. Much to the chagrin of the GOP, Trump is resonating. I went out with a gf Saturday night and she was positively drooling over Trump. I don’t hate Trump, I am enjoying this phase of the campaign, but he is not my pick. I am with Cruz.

Leftist zoilists - but I repeat myself - have nothing good to say about tradition.

Obama is a such a zoilist-
He can’t seem to control
Doing scolding speeches
No matter what the goal

He even shakes his finger
Like Clinton used to do
Whenever he is questioned
By the plebs like me or you

Like Clinton, he’s indignant
Insulted and gets all riled-
But Bill didn’t allow himself
To act like a spoiled child...

It is 94 and mostly sunny-glad I was working inside, the place is a weekend cabin and vacant-we brought our own fans, and fortunately the electric was on-I do not let anyone work without at least shade and a fan in the Summer...
