lies of a nature we’ve heard before
do my prayers remain unanswered
like a beggar at your sleeve

I really thought that this was a joke:

Saint Clinton's image on these keepsake items will remind you of better times (about 4 years ago) when you had enough money to eat at a nice restaurant, get your car washed, or take a day off work.

His timeless, sympathetic words, "I feel your pain," echo in his reassuring expression.

Yes, things will be better again someday, and with Saint Clinton watching over your home, the golden boy from Hope, Arkansas, can help keep hope alive for you.

But it isn't. Click here to view the page; click anywhere on it and you'll go to a Café Press page featuring the Billikon plastered on coffee cups, refrigerator magnets, and lunchboxes. There's also some other stuff for sale, like I ♥ Abortion infant-size shirts and bibs. Charming.
