What About Your Whataboutery

By Irish_Thatcherite, Summer 2003

Ahem... (clearing throat)

We know the West's not Perfect
We know Democracy has it's Flaws
To many Voices trying to Effect
Useless Politicians making Useless Laws

But in Iraq, They had no Voice
Murder, Genocide and Torture
The Iraqi People had no Choice
The Liberals say it's The Culture

But your Whataboutery points the Finger
At Britain, America and Israel
Hating Them - It must Linger
Your Hating Them, Your Holy Grail

And your Pacifism let's Tyrants of the Hook
All it is, is your Self-Flattery
Robert Fisk, Clare Short and Robin Cook
So... What About Your Whataboutery

Veddy Nice...

In a literary talent sense, I really feel kinda out of my league on this thread. Good to be amongst such excellent people though... ;-)
