501(c) (4): U.S.TAX CODE OR DEATH CAMP NUMBER? *


A policy of imitation,
The highest form of flattery,
Allows a Democrat’s donation
To help subvert democracy:
By letting Dems remain anonymous
When giving, they’ve become synonymous
With Karl Rove’s Crossroads GPS
Which marshaled his right-wing success
In 2010’s mid-term elections.
This imitation’s oligopoly.
But all know there’s no news in that.
The rich Dems are republicrat
Which means they too stand for monopoly.
But when will Dems remember “gramps”
And help reopen his death camps?

* 501 (c) (4) allows the rich to contribute to political campaigns without limit. Nor are the organizations that receive this money required to disclose the names of the donors. (President Obama claims to be opposed to this way of garnering funds for campaigns.) Inspired by the NYT article of April 30,2011.
