Two comments on this post which mocked Obama’s immigration plan using a Peter Pan theme deserve some special attention and High Praise!:
You Can Tax You Can Tax You Can Tax – by Peter Pan
Think of the welfare you’ve brought
Any merry little thought
Think of a tax on Christmas, think of a tax on snow
Think of taxing sleigh bells Here we go!
Like a taxing to the max
You can tax! You can tax!
You can tax! You can tax!
Soon you’ll tax all around the room
All it takes is faith and trust
But the thing that’s a positive must
Is a little bit of taxman dust
The dust is a positive must
You can tax! You can tax!
You can tax! You can tax!
When there’s a tax in your heart
There’s no better time to start
It’s a very simple plan
You can do what the taxman can
At least it’s worth a try
You can tax! You can tax!
You can tax! You can tax!

Taxerwocky (my sincere apologies to Mr. Carroll)
`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.“Beware the Taxerwock, my son!
The jaws that Lie, the claws that grab!
Beware the JoeJoe bird, and shun
The frumious Janetsnatch!”
He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the cowardly foe he sought –
So rested he by the Liberty tree,
And stood awhile in thought.
And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Taxerwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it impotent, and with its Bill
He went galumphing back.
“And, has thou slain the Taxerwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!’
He chortled in his joy.`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
Seanmahair, I especially liked the “JoeJoe bird,” because is was so perfect.
Thank you sir. I liked it too. My sweet spouse the Janetsnatch (I think he was equating it to something, but I was afraid to ask- I don’t really want to know). Oh and YGDFT!YLTATSOTE! and NAACP!!
*My sweet spouse enjoyed * 3 hours of sleep last night has encouraged brain “lag”. Sorry about that.
Bacon to Seanmahair!

Update on Peter (The Taxman) Pan. He is now retired to California where he no longer collects taxes…but damn sure gets to pay them.
