The Spanish Inquisition employed methods much admired If you are a Bushie who's not anxious to be fired. No more honor, justice with due process, or the truth As Bush's Torquemadas set a model for our youth. His latest Torquemada, A. Romeo Gonzales, Promoted plans for torture with Bush sanctioned forms of malice. Like Spain's Torquemada he believes in long detentions, Finding ways to circumvent our nation's good intentions. "Geneva's quaint and out of date and torture's redefined," Yet he and Bush both fail to see why they have been maligned, Change 'prisoners' to 'detainees' and never prefer charges; A lifetime of detention is a Torquemada largess. Interrogate with torture captured innocent Iraqis And, down the road, Americans who might become Bushwhackies. The Spanish Inquisition's being transferred to our shores, So tell Bush what he wants to hear or you'll be getting yours. Bob Carlson To 'Another Duck' |
