The Second Oldest Profession

(Santorum's shocking "professions")

His second oldest profession is
That of religious politician,
Which in a way overlaps the first.
And for all who don't buy Santorum,
It certainly could be the worst.

Pennsylvania voters spurned
Rick Santorum when they learned
He was a crook and a double-talker.
That he would steal from them was a shocker.

It wasn't predictions of their beheading
That any one of them was dreading.
It was the extent to which the fanatic
Claimed only he was not off his rocker.

Speaking before a microphone
Doesn't mean loud-mouths are right.
Speaking before an audience
Doesn't mean his is the one true light.

Freedom of religion means
    the fool can have his say.
Freedom from religion means
    he won't necessarily get his way.


No way do his and our beliefs
    have to be the same.
Few of us are politicians
    with Santorum's outrageous aim.
