Dicked Again by Rick Burnley (a poem about our vp)

Dicked Again

Here’s a tribute to you, Dick Cheney
Our Vice President Select
You stole your way to the seat of power
And have done all you can to infect
Our nation, with your heartless vision
To make America the Evil Empire
Your bloody hands on the trigger finger
And you’re setting our world on fire

Many see you as Darth Vader
And that’s certainly not a stretch
And we look at your litany of violent crime
It’s enough to make us wretch

The Evil Empire is what you’ve created
And you torture, murder and steal
You’ve left a bloody wake of innocent victims
How in Hell does it feel?

You tilt your head when you’re talking
And that’s out of the side of your mouth
While you try to convince us of your wisdom
Everything that you do goes south.
Except for the profits of the oil and arms companies
And the private armies you create
You and your neocon henchmen
Are killing the United States

5. I met Rick a few times up here in MA.
He was with us when we put up Arlington East on October 2006, and he also was with us in Kennebunkport, MA on 8.25.2007. I just found this kbp video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=VP4kE5rFSR8


He's a pretty cool dude. :thumbsup:

I know him through Camp Casey. Glad you have met him too. He adds such a nice element to any protest group :)
