Poem Artwork

Another month & we can bid him farewell,

Back to Texas he will go where he can live well,

Leaving “his” country in the throes of depression,

He screwed it up so much the country could find,

Itself suffering the pangs of repossession…

 

So another month and to this dumbass we can say adieu,

He got away with making the country good for the rich few,

But the rest of us have to live from hand to mouth,

So few jobs left that some think of moving over the border south…

 

Tell me I’m wrong, I don’t really care,

This is the way I see it, he treated his country most unfair,

If I lived in his new neighborhood in Texas, I would move away from there,

Better to live in the grungiest ghetto in a third world country,

Than to live near a person that has prospered climbing up the ladder,

Of success on the backs of the poor, making his wallet fatter…

Will he have to pay big taxes now? Cut coupons for the food? Mow his own lawn?

Well I am going to disagree Ed..:)
He was the right man at the right time. We move on with Barack now, and I don't think we should pre-judge or bear grudges in life
Keep on trucking !

Hi, Ed! Sorry I've been away for a while. Gee, funny thing how gas prices fell back to normal right after the election, isn't it?

I would like to suggest a jail cell for him to move into for all the crimes he helped to commit. This bail out of the financial sector is starting to stink like a big pay off to me. This is wonderfully penned and really relates to my thoughts. Liz

I don't know what to say of this mess right now. I am gonna wait it out, pray it out and see. When I think back to voting him in, I get sick.

Dumbass too good fer 'im!! That is one scary. . .starts with b, ends
with d. Have to agree with my friend, Mr. Ed., that he is very shrewd, but I don't put it up to intelligence. What he had went up his nose or liver long ago. Not being a saint, I feel a little bad about that last remark, but to say that it is a relief to see him go is the understatement of the year! Maybe now we have a chance to turn
things around. Let's hope!! Thanks, man!! xOx Phyllis xOx

This is the way I see it, he treated his country most unfair

I think most Americans would now finally agree with you, but it amazes me that it took them so long to do so.

But he ain't dumb. As Jay Leno just pointed out, because of our abysmal real estate market, he just bought his new $4 million dollar Texas home for only $2 million. Pretty shrewd, I'd say.
