CHENEY’S BAD DAY

CHENEY’S BAD DAY

Dick Cheney
just had the worst day of his life
he said so himself

The worst day in Dick Cheney’s life
was not the day John F. Kennedy died
or Robert Kennedy or Martin Luther King

The worst day in Dick Cheney’s life
was not one of the many when he learned
that dozens of the young and brave
he had helped send to Iraq
were not coming back

The worst day in Dick Cheney’s life
was not even 9/11

The worst day in Dick Cheney’s life
was hunting quail in Texas
after a beer or two

The worst day in Dick Cheney’s life
was when he pulled the trigger
and saw a man actually fall
saw a man actually bleed

A bad day for Dick Cheney
may be a good day for the world

FRIENDLY FIRE

FRIENDLY FIRE

When Cheney pulls the trigger
it’s likely as not
that a partner not a bird gets shot

In Afghanistan allies tremble to a man
so much power – so little plan

Killing Canadians from Strathcona
and Cardinals from Arizona

And how many Iraqis now have died
who might really have been on our side
