THE CROCODILE by Lewis Carroll

How doth the little crocodile
Improve his shining tail,
And pour the waters of the Nile
On every golden scale!

How cheerfully he seems to grin
How neatly spreads his claws,
And welcomes little fishes in,
With gently smiling jaws!

A children’s poem, yes, but also a reminder of our lean and hungry progressive President Obama (and his fellow administrators) who like the amphibian, has an unending appetite for dominion. We little people are the fishes; he is the big, croc with appealing smile.
