Partisan Oz

Yellow brick roads are fine,
but funding has to come from somewhere.
We can't just open the vault every time a twister 
blows up your skirt--
musses your hair.

Somebody ought to stop all these Munchkins and monkeys
from flying across our border like they do.
You must be THIS TALL to vote, with a picture I.D.--
this means singers and simians.
This means YOU.

Dorothy, don't think for a minute that your vajayjay is your own;
don't make eyes at Glinda Good Witch, we've got interns keeping logs.
We're the men behind the curtain--
no guilds
no gals
no dogs.

  5. No government regulation! Unless you are: poor,hispanic, black, mot our base, a child refugee, someone worried about gun safety, or worst of all, a woman. Oh, and our religion trumps your right to whatever we say offends us. You nailed it and I love the v-word line. Keep government out of the marketplace and in the uterus, where it belongs! ;_)
