Hillary’s left-wing portfolio
An anti-growth Communist olio
Will leave me dejected

Isn’t olio the song of the flying monkeys of Oz?

Hmmmn.

But Iowe-Iowe, Its off to work we go is the drarwfs’ song underground, isn't it?

Or is that, “Iowa, Iowa - It's off to delegates I go” every 4 years?

Oleo is also a suspended strut attached at one end, typically with an oil-filled shock absorber to damp out motion either up-and-down or in-and-out, depending on how the airplane landing gear is designed.
