Array ( [sid] => 53630 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => IS THIS WHAT YOU VOTED FOR? [time] => 2004-06-25 05:53:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => He wanted war
“Bring it on!”
Give me more

Is this what you voted for?

He told you lies
Now your soldier dies
And we all despise

Is this what you voted for?

He caused untold death
With each lying breath
Spreading pseudo-patriotic lore

Is this what you voted for?

He created an anarchic state
Packed full of hate
To evil he opened a door

Is this what you voted for?

He gave terrorists a cause
He disrupted our laws
Your reputation ruined and sore

Is this what you voted for?

He made a new training ground
For terrorists to fight around
His stupidity knows no floor

Is this what you voted for?

A war without end
Where America has no friend
Is it not something to deplore?

Is this what you voted for?

We see people die
Because of this man’s lie
He is useless to the core

Is THIS what you voted for?

awesome poem very direct and hard hitting. I liked the rhyme scheme as well as the repetition.
