Obama's Gulf War –
A Placating President
Giving away the store

A placating President whose Secretary
Of the Interior
's such a great placater, too,
They let MMS toadies from Bushie's regime
Placate BP with their "bully-for-you".

But "bully-for-you" we're afraid is contagious
As Barack tries to placate all the drill-baby-drillers
Who also have welcomed Oil Mafia money,
Money donated by repeat driller killers.

BP has a hist'ry of flaunting the law.
They're so high and mighty, why should they obey?
And knowing our President's such a placater,
Wall Street is betting they won't have to pay.

Obama will find an excuse to placate them.
Check out the criminal charges he'll drop.
BP will promise goody-two-shoes behavior
While we sit and watch their Atlantis wells pop.

He'll trade away lots more Gulf Coast devastation
In Florida, the Arctic and up the East Coast
For Joe Barton's promise to pass cap and trade
And apologize when the East Coast is toast.
