Email from Russ a few minutes ago:

Bill, last night I got an email from Bruce Obermeyer commenting on my latest Kerry poem. Bruce suggested Kerry should put himself in for another Purple Heart for last week's self inflicted wound. That suggestion fell on fertile ground and here is the result I submitted to American Thinker a couple of hours later. Because I wrote it so quickly, the rhythm is a little tricky in places but I think the Dogs and our readers will like it.

Regards,
Russ

Another Kerry Purple Heart?

A question lurking in my brain
Since last week’s Turkey shoot;
Do we honor Big John’s bitter pain;
From that big hole in his foot?
After all he has a history
Of injuries self-inflicted;
And by now it’s not a mystery,
He’s Purple Heart addicted.

Big fool at a big convention,
Salutes a room of fellow fools,
Disregarding past dissension,
Treasonous trampling of the rules;
He thought we vets were easily sold
By his phony Purple Hearts;
That we’d forgive the lies he’d told,
Just dimwit, dense old farts.

Yeah, John believes that we’re all dumb,
From sixties to the present,
Dull pawns beneath his Brahmin thumb,
Every fighting man’s a peasant.
Not for us peons mystery hats,
From Cambodian faux incursions;
No, we’re just ignorant boonie rats,
To Big John, just dumb diversions.

Last week John Kerry boldly stood,
Sharp quip within his quiver;
A line might have been really good,
But he was too dumb to deliver.
So I call upon our president,
That one, you know’s, not smart?
To award what’s need is evident,
A Kerry Dumb Ass Purple Heart.
