Liz Cheney’s Not Lon Chaney

Why recent events on Capitol Hill resemble a horror show

Liz Cheney is Lon Chaney
to the Tumpsters on the right.
To them she is a monster to be shunned.
Ridiculous! Dick’s daughter
isn’t scary or insane.
Watch her contemplate a future White House run.

I respect her for her candor.
She has guts to speak her mind.
Perhaps The Donald’s met his match in her.
Refusing to be silenced,
Liz has paid a hefty toll.
But there is a price if truth is to endure.

Republicans, be cautious.
Ask yourself what Abe would do
to preserve a party built on Lincoln logs.
The spirit of division
will not multiply for good.
Those who fight like cats in time go to the dogs.
