Almost There

The Libyan consulate in Benghazi is torched and the Ambassador killed, along with three ex-Navy Seals. Simultaneously, American embassies around the world are attacked and torched by Muslims. “In the next four years, an unforeseen crisis, challenge or conflict is going to seize the country. Whose leadership, whose judgment, whose values do you want in the White House when that crisis lands like a thud on the Oval Office desk?” Rahm Emmanuel, speaking to the Democratic convention not so long ago. But Rahm was speaking of UNFORSEEN crises and challenges, and this one was entirely foreseen.

 

I tell you, Rahm, Obama said

His face a mask of gloom

That we knew this would come about

Must never leave this room

It all fits in with our big plan

The timing though’s not right

I thought I’d have the crisis come

After election night

But now the cat’s escaped the bag

Advantage we must take

Our friends at NBC will claim

That for our country’s sake

We must maintain the status quo

Must keep Obama there

He knows the Middle East unlike

That Mitt who doesn’t care

How many embassies are torched

How many staff are killed

How poor the starving Muslims are

So long as he has filled

The coffers of his Mormon friends

With gold and silver coins

Nor does he care about the folks

In places like Des Moines

Advantage, Rahm! Those chanting mobs!

The burning flags, the screams

Of death to all Americans

Have hastened both our dreams

Of power over all the world

A thousand years to come

Is now within our grasp, dear friend

With all beneath my thumb

I tell you, Rahm, Obama cried

Fist pumping in the air

Another embassy or two

And Rahm, by God we’re there!
