He'D Rather Be Golfin'

He's been swingin' clubs since trouble began.

   The Great Leader proclaims he hath no plan!

      Hey man!  There is a crisis,

         With some bandits called Isis!

            Cease yer 'putt'erin' and 'strategize', man!

Yet another smashing write about the president! Keep 'em coming! Seeing how you have great contempt for "Our Lord and Savior", Barrack Obama you might like my poem Because We Are Brave...

Kind of like Niro playing his fiddle while Rome burned. A thought provoking Limerick.

Some things are important and some are not. I guess this wasn't. I don't like golf. Good write Robert... Lucy

Boy, can I relate to your feelings about our golfing president. Even my sister (who used to think he was great) is very upset that he is not addressing the most important issues. Well said, my friend! Love, Carolyn
