BP Indebted Congressman, Joe Barton, morphs from, "Smokey" to "Stinky."

The ballad of "Stinky Joe."

Here's the story of a politician named Barton,
Whose smell was from much more than fartin'.*
As the well pours black tides and creatures and cultures die,
To poor BP, Joe apologized, stinkin' up Congress with lies.

*crude rhyme, I know. apologies to my muse.
