Another poetic work of art from TMV’s favorite poet, Michael Silverstein, aka Wall Street Poet:
Condi Goes Forth To Save Lebanon
To Lebanon, she boldly goes,
Our diplomat-in chief;
A needed cure she thinks she knows,
For that tortured nation’s grief.
And who can doubt she’ll make the place
Much safer, richer, freer;
Just check her record with Iraq,
Iran and North Korea.
