Adieu, Dan Quayle

Farewell, once more, J. Danforth Quayle. Although we know it's sad to fail, Remember, you were once obscure-- Considered lightweight, immature.

Farewell, once more, J. Danforth Quayle. Although we know it’s sad to fail, Remember, you were once obscure– Considered lightweight, immature. A Bush then snatched you from the pack. Another Bush now puts you back.
