In The Mirror -- Poem

Originally written in 4/2010

New Republicans in the House
They're all so conservative
Off that George Bush shit
Stickin' to what Palin says

Palin's on Fox
Yeah that's the hot news
Got up and left her state
Right out of the blue
Hit the book tour with the one she didn't even write
Ghostwritten by others who haven't lived her life
Soaking up the spotlight, living in the fame
Going rogue
Sparking movements
Charging people money that's insane

On to the Tea Partiers, who hate on Obama
Putting 'staches on his face
Sparking up the drama
One jab, two jabs, they think he's going down
Little do they know that they're just a bunch of clowns
Throwin' him under the bus
Callin' him socialist
When you say those words
Dude you're so ignorant
They're led by GB
Yeah I'm talking Glenn Beck
Callin' Obama all the names
Just to get the ratings check
All day it's Maoist, Socialist, Marxist, Progressive
All Barack is doing is helping the most oppressed men
Yeah he's on the left, but not way in left field
Look at the fighting in his party on the healthcare deal
Public option's out. Abortion restrictions tightened.
This was a centrist bill, whether or not you like it

Back to Glenn Beck, no I'm not done yet.
Always putting progressives down from his TV set
What's wrong with the prospect of a better place?
Clean water, clean Earth, let's clean up this place
Somehow that makes me a Maoist controlling everyone
Let me turn the tables on this one troubled man

He tells me man is fallen
Points to the Holy Book
He says all of our laws come from these ideals
If you don't believe in them
You're an enemy of the people
How is that any different from a theocracy?
Imprinting on minds how life's gotta be
That's not the nation that I grew up in
Read the Founders words
It's in plain text man
