Mazeltov All Ya'Ll Poem by Joe Rosochacki

Chelsea Clinton has announced her engagement today to Marc Medvinsky,
No, he is not related to Monica Lewinsky.
He is an investment banker, like Bernie Madoff was,
-- hummmmm-
Marc's dad, former Iowa Representative Ed Medvinsky,
Was sentenced to five years in prison for defrauding people,
About 10 million dollars worth,
(Chump change to someone like Bernie)
He obliviously broke some laws.
Will he offer to pay for wedding?
To me, Clinton's presidential pardon of Marc Rich, *
(who did break laws concerning tax evasion and running illegal oil deals with Iran)
That whole thing about Monica,
Having a con for an in-law who's son works that Goldman-Sachs,
A recipient of tax-payers bail outs-
This is crazy!
Forget about political attacks.
Get out the Chuppah and break the glass,
Of this never-ending saga,
I wonder if Bill and Hillary will dance together at their daughter's wedding?
I wonder if Michaele and Tareq Salahi-
--will show up, showing no class.
I wonder why I am thinking about this.
Investments bankers, politics and money, greed,
-- sex and power it's all the same to me.
Will Chelsea and Marc break away from their predecessors?
The acorn does not fall from the tree.

*In 1983, financier Rich was indicted for evading more than $48 million in taxes, and charged with 51 counts of tax fraud, as well as running illegal oil deals with Iran during the 1979-1980 hostage crisis. During his last week in office, President Bill Clinton pardoned Rich, who had fled the U.S. during his prosecution and was residing in Switzerland.
