they always talk
about Reagan
being the great communicator
yet what does he communicate?
the same old Republican
rhetoric
that has been preached for the last
30 years....
large corporations that don't give
a damn about the average person
support cheap labor that puts average
people out of a job.
And Bush is no different.
Promises made
yet when it comes to keeping
the promises
somehow they always
conveniently forget
caring about the people
that put them in. Them care?
Yea right!
Sounds like a preacher
who talks about sin
yet takes a lover
behind closed doors
leaving one wondering if they
ever had any ethics.
Only if one is smart
knows that they're blowing in the wind.

Well I know nothing of American politics... Can bearly get my head around UK politics sometimes lol! I loved the staggered layout of this piece, like thoughts that are seperated yet linked in a strange way... But thats just my thoughts - and I am silly

Blowing in the wind, tossed and driven to the seas and drowning in the pit of hell fires...What a joke, Bush and Reagan. We have never suffered economically from war. Jobs were created in every war in the history of this country except this one. That's because we're spending 91 billion dollars to educate Iraqi child and two cents to educate our own. What a farce! I hope we show him in the end! Another great political poem! Keep 'em coming!

Hey, this is cool. I like it. I like the last two lines and how you managed to tie them in with the meaning of the poem. Hehe, another Bush hater, eh? That's always good to know. XD Anyways, I like it. It says a lot, and some of us hypocrites need to read this piece. Nice job.
