Barack's Darkest Secret

If Obama were to "go Bulworth,"

What might he go Bulworth about?

What would be most shocking and telling

If he were to blurt it out?

What about the heroin upsurge

And the wave of young lives we've lost?

What's behind this massive tragedy,

With its sickening human cost?

It's to his Afghan policy

That the heroin glut is owing;

He's keeping our troops in country

So the opium keeps on flowing.

To our vile press propagandists

It's all "no foul, no harm."

While the sinister ones behind them

Get a financial shot in the arm.
