Bush Out-Gulags Putin *
Sung to the tune "Jealous"
(sung by The Andrews Sisters - 1941)

He's jealous of the gulags I'm proud of.
Compared with Putin's they're a cut above.
He's jealous of Guantanamo's 'no pleas',
Defying the Supreme Court's legalese.

He's jealous of how we treat the Koran
In Bagram, Gitmo and Afghanistan.
He's jealous of the tortures we inflict
With no one strong enough to interdict.

He's jealous of the term 'ghost detainees'.
Describing anyone who disagrees.
But I'm proudest that that evil Russian elf
Now's becoming jealous of myself.
