The Poetry Of Sarah Palin

[Edwina's Secretary]

All politics aside, I must note:

Breaking text up into short lines does NOT a poem make.

Very true! And stringing a bunch of words together does not make a sentence either!

Your All Correct.. Thats why I am staying away from the polls on Nov 4th..

[RICHARD]

The political climate in the rareifed air
has left me gasping and pulling my hair!
The economy is bad, A war in Iraq-
All of the blather, political attacks!

The one who we choose, is our fascination-
The election is serious! Not recreation!
Bickering, bobbing, ads are debated
The first week in November, our desires will be sated.

Everyone is wrong, everyone's right
Let's roll up our sleeves, It's a political fight!
Elephants, donkeys, the GOPS and the DEMS!
No one has commented on Sarah's dress hems!

Mcain is a hero, Barack is a traitor.
I wonder what politics are like on the equator?
Barack is the man, McCain an old fool?
And everyone claims they went to Hard Knock School!

It nice to have discourse, to have a small voice.
Think of the countries where no one has choice.
When the polls close, there will tears
and the side that's elected will be known from the cheers.

Politics divide, they unite and disgust.
It's winner take all, Will the totals be just?
After it's over I hope we can be friends.
That what it takes, to be American.

Congrats Richard, it all rhymes.


This Palin poem is my all time fave. No matter how many times I read it,
it never does make any kind of sense.

"On the Bailout"

Ultimately,
What the bailout does
Is help those who are concerned
About the health care reform
That is needed
To help shore up our economy,
Helping the—
It's got to be all about job creation, too.

Shoring up our economy
And putting it back on the right track.
So health care reform
And reducing taxes
And reining in spending
Has got to accompany tax reductions
And tax relief for Americans.
And trade.

We've got to see trade
As opportunity
Not as a competitive, scary thing.
But one in five jobs
Being created in the trade sector today,
We've got to look at that
As more opportunity.
All those things.
