Well Rudy Giuliani is running for President. Or maybe not. He's exploring the possibility of thinking about whether he's exploring announcing. Whatever. He's running.
He's running as a Republican (oooooh ick!)
A pro-choice, anti-gun, pro-gay rights Republican (that's ummmmmmm .... different).
But there's another Rudy. Rude crude Rudy. And he shouldn't be president of anything

Update [2007-2-11 10:26:37 by plf515]: I'd like to make this a group effort. Make suggestions, corrections, additions in the comments, and I will post a second draft tomorrow. Once it's polished.....then we publicize it as a kossack poem
Rude Crude Rudy
When rude crude Rudy was mayor round here
The Whites lived in horror and the Blacks lived in fear
The bill of rights was not held dear
When rude crude Rudy was the mayor round here
The police shot innocents - Rudy said 'fine'
America's mayor sure as hell ain't mine.
Some say he's liberal but he toes the Bush line
And his plan for New York was a bad design.
He stole from victims - that really ain't cool.
If you buy his lies, you're a goddamn fool.
He may sound different but he's a rethug tool
Did he learn that back in Catholic school?
He announced his divorce on a TV show
Telling his wife would be so hard, you know?
He's good friends with Kerik, who had to go
Off to Iraq where he ran the show.
He's a chickenhawk (just like Bush et al)
Three deferments for him - that's not bad at all.
Not up there with Cheney - the war ended too soon
The words may be different but it's the same sick tune.
He detained Haitians who fled their sad land
There's no repression in Haiti, don't you understand?
But if he thinks that's OK then I have a big fear
If he gets elected, will it happen here?
He closed a museum (it was showing art)
Ending dissent? Well, he made a start.
Some folks like him cause they say he's smart -
He might have a brain but he's got no heart.
