"Spam, spam, spam, spam, . . . lovely spam, Democrat spam!"
2004-05-25
Got this poem in my inbox this morning. It’s a stirring manifesto. A call to . . . well, something.

To the Democratic Underground,

Gather strenghth dear Pamphleteers!
the pamphleteers/have hairy ears/their heads are up their tushes/they’d ride an ass/through broken glass/to vote against George Bushes
We the leaders of our new velvet undergound.
Lou Reed is a member of Democrat Underground? Whoda thunk it?
We whose current leaders take us for subverters.
For we do not tranfer sovereignty with ignorance.
Nor sully ouer text with spell chekers
O Pamphleteers.
lend me your ears
O must they sell a government at gunpoint.
And to what end dear Pamphleteers.
To attack from what forward position.
Where, oh were, are my question marks.
O and to take our eyes of the balls.
Eyeballs?
And if we do justice to follow the money.
Let’s all sing The Money Song: "I’ve got ninety thousand pounds in my bank account./I’ve got forty thousand French francs in my fridge./I’ve got lots and lots of lira, Now the deutschmark’s getting dearer,/And my dollar bill could buy the Brooklyn Bridge./There is nothing quite so wonderful as money! . . ."
We have a judicial system a military problem not optimistic.
Take heart dear undergrounders. Here we stand with or without war.
With or without brains.
