Thread Name: BS: The America that will vote for Bush
Subject: RE: BS: The America that will vote for Bush
Not everyone cares if our 'George' is a genius
Or if he is briefed by the knowing
But often it is that his biased b'tween us
Is the tip of an iceberg not showing

And many there are, in this country ashame'd
Of the distance between rich and poor
But 'George' is so confident, feeling all fame'd
A'leading us well, and he's sure...

So those who stand tall in his shadow are cheering
For 'he's saved us in difficult times'
A'listen in silence for words of revering
In a manifestation of mimes

A nuance unneeded is our personal thinking
For those next to 'George' do it for us
We've only to follow the the horse that is drinking
The trough has been put here before us

Yes, those will vote for him... the ones who've forgotten
That leaders must be caring... humanely
Except for the rotten, like that damn'd bin Laden
Who kill and by fear wax insanely

But let me just say, in a moment of peace
That 'George' may not do us an honor
For his likeness to war is not likely to cease
And we can't be much healed with a bomber

The only solution that in my mind speaks
Is a world well funded and clothed and fed
Compassion's foundation can calm the world's tweeks
There's much good to do, but 'George' says instead...
