« Oberholtzer, Jenkins feud gets Seuss treatment »

The Snellville blogger has posted a poem about the Jerry Oberholtzer/Robert Jenkins fued that showed up on Dave Barry's blog.  A blogger known as NotDrSeuss has given the Seuss-style treatment to the elected official dust-up in Snellville.

In Snellville there lived a good mayor they say

Who mayored all night and then mayored all day

His name, Oberholtzer, was known far and wide

For he equally mayored indoors and outside.

In Snellville was also a councilman bold

Named Jenkins, who counseled quite well, it's been told.

He could counsel a council on hills and on roads.

Then, alas, one day both men did need the commode.

Such a brouhaha brewed as was ne'er before seen!

And a hullabaloo! Things were getting quite mean!

The mayor and councilman had history

Which made Oberholtzer reluctant to pee

See, Jenkins was scary and quite fond of suing

Which made Oberholtzer uneasy in pooing.

Oberholtzer decided to ask for a guard

And suggested to Jenkins, "Use the loo in your yard!"

Police Chief Roy Whitehead does what he can do

So in Snellville, they have to take turns in the loo!

Definitely a funny poem, but how sad that Snellville and Gwinnett County are being made national laughingstocks because of childish behavior of grown adults, adults that hold positions of authority and responsibility.
