"W" (a poem)
Kerry,Kerry, quite Contrary,
How did Ohio go?
You made the push, to beat George Bush,
but overlooked Karl Rove!
You padded the vote, with even a goat,
and lawyers ready to rally!
But try as you may, on that given day,
fell short on the ultimate tally!!
With CBS Dan, you made your stand,
and labeled the Prez a liar!
The "Elitist" beamed as "Farenheit" screened,
and Teddy belched deep from the mire!!
The Media said, that you were ahead,
and winning by you, a "cinch"!
They just couldn't wait, to end the debate,
and Crown you and the "pickle-wench"!!
But from the waters of Nam, and praise of the "Cong",
Your past had the stench of a "paddy"!
After all's said and done, about who's Number One!
W is still yo Daddy!!!!
Have you seen this? What unbelievable dreck. The "Who's Your Daddy?" show, in which a young woman given up for adoption as a child gets a $100,000 prize for picking out her biological father from a line-up, is the latest in America's obsession with reality TV programming.
I'd seen a segment of a Montell Williams show a few years ago where a young woman with a child was presented with three young men - one of them was the father of their chld. There had been DNA testing done, and at the end of the segment it was revealed which one was the Daddy. Unbelievable. That was the only time I'd seen the show, and only watched for about 10 minutes. Yet, it's stuck in my memory. I guess I've led a sheltered life, where everyone I know usually knows who the father of their children is, and doesn't feel the need to go on national television in a game-show-like atmosphere and have all revealed thanks to the miracle of DNA testing. GAH!!
