That taunting jack-o'-lattern grin,
   that evil harbinger of spin,
   as he prepares to do us in
   for four more years and probably forever –

Increasing budget deficits,
   more Halliburton benefits,
   and still no one who matters quits;
   no changing gears or firing whomsoever –

Are you satisfied that you
   did ev'rything that you could do
   to exorcise this witches brew
   of policies that Junior thinks are clever?

Your vote for Kerry didn't do it;
   Nader was the wrong conduit;
   God only knows how we'll undo it –
   perhaps impeach the turkey, or whatever…
