Or spewed in love and fear/

Can’t stop an oil spill/

No mumbled cower/

Head up, the humility/

To see we are one/


Speak fair minded words/

Far from home’s safe fireside chair/

Open minds and open hearts/

Clear course, now the fight/

Deeper into blue water/

Big O sets a line/


Rush to his judgment/

Chief bully bites ego bait/

His words weigh him down/


On deck a calm O/

Ego sharks thrashing deeper/

Tide rise lifts blue wave/


Dittoheads cry cry/

Rally round champion mouth/

All anchor, no boat/



rush limbaugh hates obama
