A poem written this weekend by a friend of mine.....

M

In Taipei, cigar in hand.
Just thankful for a night where I do not have to lead the band.

Thoughts of the kids on my mind.
Thank the Lord for being so kind.

Then up on the screen pops CNN.
And to ruin my night Obama comes in.

He talks of taxing us all until we bleed.
I turn to BBC thinking that's all I need.

But like the plague he shows up there.
Taxes, regulations, and all oil companies beware.

Why can't that guy just leave me alone.
It's not like I call him and threaten him on the phone.

Gas costs 4 bucks, beef prices are rising.
I just see no "hope" on the horizon.

So I take a puff of that wonderful Cuban weed.
And for a second it doesn't hurt that my president wants to tax me until I bleed.

I am not a titan of commerce and my wife rules my castle.
All I ask from life is that there is just not too much hassle.

But I have a president who see's me as rich.
And for that crime he is making me his bitch.

I love America, with all it's imperfections.
But why does the President feel the need to have the IRS subject me to an anal inspection.

Well, we'll tough it out with a President as competent as New Orleans Mayor Nagen.
But heart beats longingly for my hero, Ronald Reagan.
