Tunisian Election
Obama was in Cairo to seek a new beginning
But nobody knows his real feeling
He wanted to please his fellow democrats
Disregarding warnings from diplomats
Recently Tunisia hat its Election Day
Its results take all women’s rights away
President Obama doesn’t seem to mind
Is this Islamic advancement of some kind?
He wanted to teach the Arabs Democracy
They wound up with a new Theocracy
The same with Egypt, Libya, and now Tunisia
Should we all look the other way in amnesia?
After Bourguiba has liberated the women
Ennahda will unleash the religious men
To deny these rights – the wheel is spinning -
Obama was in Cairo to seek a new beginning
