Obama's Gulf War –
Tar Balls For Britain
Courtesy of British Petroleum

Do currents warm Britain as much as they could?
Is British Petroleum up to no good
With a tax-free supply of light MMS crude
In golf ball size globules? How clever, how shrewd.

Transported to Britain by a friendly Gulf Stream
At no cost to BP - an exporter's dream.
All hands to the beaches collecting the tar,
Avoiding dispersants wherever they are.

A bonanza for Britain except for one thing.
The white cliffs of Dover get a new bathtub ring.
Still how friendly of us; we're lend-leasing again.
They've more than they need? Just tell BP 'when'.
