Poughkeepsie Postmodernism
—for John McCain & Sarah Palin
“Ever pick your feet in Poughkeepsie?”
—Gene “Popeye” Hackman,
The French Connection (1971)
Poughkeepsie rules—
GOP Postmodernism!!!
POMO pigs of the Oink!!!
Snark me baby!!!
Nothing’s more snarky—
than Intelligent Design.
It’s a hoity-toity version
of being a Bible Belt Bigot.
It’s a kitschy version of—
being Born Again Christian.
A smarmy way to get votes
But then Republicans have
No shame do they?
Putting a woman on the
Ticket—an Intelligent Design
Queen Bee—it’s so Lame.
Talk about Hollywood redux
And Elmer Gantry shame.
Pushing all the same old
Cynical Elephant buttons—
Pulling out the last gasps
Of Red State Rubes and
Milking the cash-cow dry.
Sarah Palin is Creationist—
She’s anti-choice and anti-
Abortionist plus she leads
Rabid Feminists for Life…
Sarah “Barracuda” Palin—
Known for her intense
Highschool basketball play
Is an Alaskan cold fish.
She hunts, she fishes—
She poses for Vogue
And Outdoor Life with
Dead deer and caribou…
She’s good with a gun—
Not very pro-life as far
As animals are concerned
But she won’t shoot fetus.
Sarah Palin is no angel—
No Geraldine Ferraro but
Then John McCain needs
His Vampire Maverick fix…
Going for the disgruntled
Hillary Clinton votes but
Then it’s a day late and a
Dollar short, as usual…
Poughkeepsie rules—
GOP Postmodernism!!!
POMO pigs of the Oink!!!
Snark me baby!!!
