But still… there’s… something.
a presence I’ve not felt since….
(yes, that’s from Star Wars)

Criticize McCain,
and you fly with the angels.
Everyone piles on.

Diss Sarah Palin,
and you become a Godsend!
“Pig lipstick,” “and such”

Of course, many folk…
Perceive lack of praise as hate.
Oh, and racist, too.

But mention “Hussein”
and you’re branded a hater.
For saying his name!

A decorated
and brave war hero does not
a President make.

That said, neither does
the color of someone’s skin.
Historic or not.

Is change needed? YES
But change for change sake? Madness!
Pure-bred Malarky.

I won’t change your mind
with slogans or catch phrases.
I’m not trying to.

I feel core beliefs
should not be unchangeable…
But unshakable.

If pithy sayings
Can influence your ONE vote…
Don’t bother voting.

Forget name-calling;
Filter out all the hatred;
Check it at the door.

Fair-minded research
and resistance to sound bites
is all that I ask.

I’m sure there’s a way
To fuse humor with cuss words
In this here haiku

Last time I did that,
turned out pretty good, methinks.
Politics suck ass.

BTW, Amanda always seems to the be the first one to comment here… quick on the draw or she only has your site open all day, hitting refresh?

Clean,

Children’s Crusades are so entertaining.

he totally hearts the Catholics, too.

that reminds me, i was in Beaufort, SC, walking around looking for any kind of makeshift whatever to buy. there was this guy in a suit with a bible yelling on the street corner.

JESUS
IS COMING BACK
SOON!

WILL YOU BE READY WHEN
JESUS
COMES BACK SOON!

REVELATIONS TELLS US THAT
JESUS
IS COMING BACK SOON!

i had to wonder, as i roamed the streets of that very weird town, how effective that method of preaching truly is. i mean, do you think we can’t hear you? do you think we have some sort of mental deficit requiring you to literally scream at us instead of say, giving us some fucked up Jack Chick pamphlet? do you even know who Jack Chick is? is this thing on?

anyway my POINT is, your haikus, it seems to me, are far more effective than some cracker in a honkey suit yelling about

JESUS
COMING BACK
SOON!

(am high.plz disregard all)
