Don't Call Me Joe!

K. Louden
At a time when the country is ailin',
Along comes a woman named Palin.
Though she hasn't a plan--
Like a "Joe-six-pack" man--
She runs with an old guy who's failin', an' . . . .

She wants to call Biden "Joe."
(He gave her permission, you know.)
So, her critics can't say
That she wasn't polite,
And Joe, he can't "say it's not so."

Palin hardly knows why she's there.
But really, now, isn't it fair,
To throw her a crumb, for
Her state is all done for
With melting and drilling up there?

Then there's her stance on guns.
She must appeal to the ones
Who ignore all the issues
And pass out the tissues,
Crying, "They're takin' all of our fun!"

Pro-life is another non-issue.
Roe v. Wade, she'll want to dismiss you.
She'll "take back the night,"
Send more lawyers to fight--
After she learns what rides with you.

McCain says Barack will "surrender."
That's a laugh and a half, a real bender!
It isn't a war;
We settled a score.
His opponent will certainly end 'er.

Here we go with "nukular" again.
(You must learn to speak better, my friend.)
It's not hard to pronounce it.
Barack didn't denounce it--
And we don't want to hear that again!

McCain's policy's more of the same.
At times, he can't even remember a name.
His opponent is "that one."
A "Muslim"?--now, that's dumb!
No wonder Obama is winning this game!

I've had about as many job titles as Sarah Palin attended colleges. I've been a radio announcer, ad writer, English instructor, sales rep, and editor.  View profile
