Premium Member I'M Dreaming/ a Liberal Xmas Tale
Who was this white haired Claus 
With rabbit teeth? 
Carrying a ton of peanuts 
For all to eat.

Dragged in a sleigh pulled 
By Agnew and Nixon, 
Who ran right beside 
Donnar and Blitzen? 

He circled Camp David, 
A fast fly by; 
With lox and bagels...

Cringy Liberal
This poem is written by a 12 year old writer. I am only the teacher

 Cringy liberal
Waves hands
Yells
Screams about feminist issues
Talks about Bernie Sanders
Talks about legalizing weed
Gets offended easily
Yells about their self diagnosed PTSD and Claustrophobia
Tells you that you are a terrible person and compares...

In Liberal Land
In liberal land the poppies grow
Though not too long for soon they're smoked
How else can they maintain a belief
That's mired in fantasy and grief

They have consistency of mind
Their brains malfunction all the time
But don't let politics revolt
Inside they house a heart of cold

Their way of...

Premium Member Conservative Hubris, Liberal Guilt - You Decide
My friends I’ve had a great idea,
I have to let you in on,
I can’t believe that no one else
Has thought of this before.

You all know how the NRA
Says guns have made us safer?
Well this should make the rabid cheer
Saint Brian has the floor!

You’d think that...

Premium Member The Liberal Pledge of Allegiance
I, ex-conservative, do swear
The liberal view beyond compare,
Obama’s term, all heaven knows,
Like sweet lush grass between our toes,
Conservatives of good intent
As rare as bread from heaven sent.
I kneel before my liberal friends
And pledge my heart to make amends,
You stood by me when still a geek
Forgiveness...

Premium Member Not Conservative Or Liberal
Not Conservative or Liberal
By Franklin Price
1/31/2016

Not Conservative or Liberal by definition cannot be.
The former wants tradition and the latter change to see.
The world is not the way it was, this country's not the same
As even twenty years ago, yet both parties play the game.

The population's...

Premium Member Liberal Breakfast
When the bacon began to fry turning sides burning 
the sausage jumped of the pan when the egg squealed

It was then you saw the beef stirring underneath surprised
behind a joint the fat was cooked just right bubbling
 
Dripping boiling lard this greasy mess left two...

Premium Member Being a Liberal
I am so proud to be a liberal--
Despite those who disparage the fact,
Because I support medical care for all
And help for those who have lacked.
I have sympathy for the downtrodden
Want the finest education for our kids
I welcome to America the refugees
And those who are down...

Premium Member A Liberal Viewpoint
To hold a liberal viewpoint is a good thing
For we liberals believe in our inalienable rights,
Rights to “the pursuit of happiness” we bring.

Freedom with responsibility, a good feeling,
Opportunity with civility is worthy of its fights
To hold a liberal viewpoint is a good thing.

For America, her...

Premium Member Dreams of a Liberal
I want to trust in other people,
That could be my biggest flaw,
Like God the Father, I am dreaming
All will come to love His law.

It’s sad to see so many people 
Bogged down in their Hellish greed,
When fairness can extinguish fires of
Hateful and self-centered need.

The hallmark...

The Liberal Church Is In Denial
Liberal Christians are in denial, 
About how much they validate, 
The fundamentalist church old, 
Because the same story is told. 

I know that the Queen, royalty, 
Is a liberal, but that’s irrelevant, 
Because history will offer people, 
A legacy of the Christian steeple. 

When fundamentalist’s...

Premium Member I Am An Old-Line Liberal
I am an old-line Liberal and proud of it, too
Though we are told liberalism is a dirty word,
Most Americans stand with me in the queue.

We liberals are willing to stand and be heard,
Always seeking what’s best for the majority
Though we are told liberalism is a...

Premium Member Expect This of Me
So, I am a liberal, and you should expect this of me
To be one who looks forward with a new approach,
Thinking outside of the box, moving progressively.

One inclined to play the game, seldom ever to coach,
I check out the statements from the various media
To be...

Change Is Coming
I met a woman fleeing from the triad.
Crossing on a ferry, far from her home
She told me of the life she once had.
In Bosphorus, struggling to hold on. 

Her hair was wrapped in a headscarf. 
Dreamed about the changes coming. 
with a shy smile and...

Premium Member When Multiculturally Presiding
As no one
never said
about nothing,

"Calling in human health care options
might not imply
calling out
lack of Earth-wealthy choices."

I could, possibly,
but certainly not prudently,
go all the way
back
back,

Even further back,
to European roots
to StraightWhiteMale monoculturalism,
Christian-Royalist monotheistic supremacy
over educational
dogma
and development systems

(not quite so sure
about the wisdom
of severing sacred church
from secular state,
especially...
