Palin is the Bridge to Nowhere: A Poem

I received this from someone who said that it was written by an 80+ year old woman. Whatever the case, it's brilliant.

SARAH
PALIN
IS
THE
BRIDGE
TO
NOWHERE.


Nowhere is a place where woman have no choice regarding their bodies,
and are forced to bear babies even if their pregnancy is a result of rape or incest.

Nowhere is a place where wolves, bears and other wildlife are hunted and killedwithout mercy, at the whim of gun toting hunters.

Nowhere is a place where we can spread lies about our political opponents without
regret or shame.

Nowhere is a place where we don't worry or care about global warming and the health of
our oceans, lands, and creatures because we are assured that whatever happens is "God's will".

Nowhere is a place where separation of state and church does not exist.

Nowhere is a place where government has the right to decide what books are in our public libraries.

Nowhere is a place
from the Dark Ages,
where the rich and
the powerful rule at
their whim, where lip
service is given to
helping all the people,
when in fact the powerful
help the powerful.

And so it goes.
