Ten Little Liberals

by Tony Whitaker

Ten little liberals were sitting down to dine
One brought up Hillary and Peter Paul, and then there were nine

Nine little liberals were in a heated debate
One said “let’s scrap the Income Tax for a Fair Tax”, and then there were eight

Eight little liberals talking about heaven
One said “there is a God”, and then there were seven

Seven little liberals said theirs is the world to fix
One said “let’s keep our troops in the Mideast region” and then there were six

Six little liberals debating on how to cut costs on health care and keep people alive
One said “the free market should drive the health care system” and then there were five

Five little liberals were talking on the House floor
One said “being a successful business man is the most important asset for being President” and then there were four

Four little liberals were talking of global warming and trying to agree
One said, “let’s get serious about privatized public transportation” and then there were three

Three little liberals were discussing ways to support retirees when they reach sixty-two
One said, “let’s privatize Social Security” and then there were two

Two little liberals discussing how Iran’s nuclear program may soon kill everyone
One said, “let’s bomb those nuclear facilities” and then there was one

One little liberal said “allow the line item veto so an entire Bill won’t go undone”
So the Democratic Party said, “I guess we have no one!”

Author's Note: My apologies to Don Campbell as he just used this old child's standard sing-alongfor his own controversial poem "Ten Little Mericans", so I couldn't resist.
I am a Libertarian and so believe less government is the best government. But in the end my philosophy is lost on the masses. I will also do one on "Ten Little Republicans" so I am sure to step on most everyone's toes. But in the end we all want to do what's right, no matter our creed as freedom of speech is just one aspect of what makes this land the greatest in the world - America!
