Unfortunately, it’s all too easy this year to spoof Washington. But as you note, the downside is that even doing so is horribly depressing.

But here’s one anyway:

It’s beginning to look a lot like Russia
Ev’rywhere you go;
Take a look on the Senate floor, glistening with even more
Backroom deals and silver bribes aglow!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Russia,
Pork in ev’ry law,
But the prettiest sight to see is the bacon that will be
In your own state’s maw.

A pair of Medicare bribes and a blizzard or two
Was the wish of Nelson and Reid.
An outright repeal of the pro-life Hyde deal
Is the hope the Democrat’s seed.
And Liberty is crying as they do their dirty deed.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Russia
Everywhere you go.
Mao is hanging on Barry’s tree;
The Senate wants health care free
For every voting Democratic ho (ho ho!)

It’s beginning to look a lot like Russia,
Soon the bells will toll.
Our economy’s in the tank,
As our deficit breaks the bank.
The Democrats are really on a roll!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Russia
Soon the bells will start.
And the thing that will make them ring
Is the greed that’s found within every Blue Dog heart.

Merry Christmas!
