Our campaigner was where? On 9/11?
   In elementary school?
Then it's a no-brainer why your bundle from heaven
   criticizes majority rule.

Concentrating his wiles on the next generation
   of Floridian voters makes sense –
Who knows if the next Bush in sheer desperation
   can afford that Supreme Court expense?

So how did our hero, so far from ground zero,
   react to the Saudi attack?
He comandeered planes for those sheiks and their harems
   and advised that they'd best hustle back.

Then he hustled, too, but away from the action,
   recalling his National Guard,
When he was a flyer with prior commitments
   to the family Diners' Club Card.

'Twas safer to fly in a westward direction,
   not trusting the powers that be,
Until Cheney swore he had no predilection
   to be anything more than VP.
