Bob Dole is gone and cast now as a patriot and hero.
Yet his post-senate career rates somewhere less than zero.
He whitewashed lobbyists from oligarchs to kleptocrats.
He spent his late years ushering a host of foreign rats.
The former nominee also endorsed the orange don.
His droll Dole sense of humor hid the fact he was a con.
So let’s not be so quick to elevate him to a saint.
He served well for the GOP, but hero he sure ain’t.
