Their Guidance Counselor
Palin's 2012 Plans

What's Palin got that Bushie's not,
     aside from what bewitches Todd?
They both attribute their careers,
    not to dot coms, but to God.
But can't she see how God screwed Bushie
    when he clearly overreached?
Can't she see he's goddamn lucky
    that he hasn't been impeached?

Bushie speaks quite haltingly
    while Palin's very glib,
But they're equally adept
    at manufacturing a fib.
Bushie's seem deliberate
    and probably pre-planned;
Hers most often off the cuff
    and dreamed up on demand.

If fibbing skill's the the reason God
    has found them qualified,
She'd better re-examine what
    it gets them when they've lied:
Enough support to bring on his
    debacle in Iraq;
For her in twenty twelve,
    a more experienced Barack!
