Everyone knows by now that Joe Biden salted his introduction of President Obama at the signing of the health care bill with a comment he thought was off-mic: “This is a big f**** deal.”

The Brian Lehrer Show has asked listeners to submit haikus about health care reform using Biden’s faux pas as the middle line. Some submissions:

Hey, Blue Cross Blue Shield
