Glittering Generalities

GLITTERING GENERALITIES I vow that you will be happily effected If I am elected by your selection At the forthcoming election. With great dedication I shall diligently bother To uphold the glory of this great nation Founded by our forefathers! National debt, Is dragging us under, Forlornly unmet, Tearing us asunder! I shall keep economy healthy By reducing taxes on the wealthy, And allowing banks to freely operate With no control of interest rates. I shall supply for those who behave Complete care, cradle to the grave. Increased medical care for the elderly, Even youth, rash and pimply. Our democracy will be securely laid In backward nations By increasing foreign aid, And greater exportation. I’m a strong proponent of women’s rights. Against abortion I will continue to fight. We’ll peacefully solve disputes By fair judiciary And dig out their roots By increased military. So, as you can see As I’ve said repeatedly, It is my intention To reduce government intervention, So that we can get Out of our national debt.
