Verbal sabre rattling

“All options are on the table!”
Beltway adulterated
phrase, a repeated worn fable
brainwashed, acculturated

Elite chattering
with scrounged-up oompf
in self-flattering
here goes, harrumph:

Blurting the same old canned phrase
(like talking dolls with battery)
piling on Empire’s proud praise
amidst harsh weapons clattery

Virtuous Officialdom
sure to expunge Evil
They stand up for Christendom
and Freedom’s Retrieval!

Those hard toiling ribboned Elite elves
they simply just cannot help themselves

ribboned = here: honored with service ribbons, medals, awards etc
