Bush & Company

The question is, who'll take the blame

For George's lethal losing game,

If his doomed war goes still more sour

While our commander's still in power

And dozens more lives have been lost

(For just which cause and at what cost?)

Will it be some Petraeus flaw

That makes us finally withdraw

Or maybe our Iraq undoing

Will be Ambassador Crocker's doing;

But maybe it's one out of three---

Petraeus? Crocker? Maliki?

He's got to scapegoat some poor sap

(Already primed to take the wrap?)

Forget that---hold onto your hats---

He could just blame the Democrats!

OR

People die, he'll say, in war,

You know we've told you that before;

Then holding up the victory sign,

He'll tell us everything is fine.

We couldn't leave for any less

Than a United States success.

See, everything has turned out great,

Because Iraq's a sovereign state!
