THE FACTS DON'T RUN WITH KARL
ReplyDeleteNow Rove declares the rush to war
Was urged ahead by Congress,
But we alive then know the score
And who were the war-mongers.
Rove, Cheney, Wolfowitz and Perle,
Rumsfeld and all that ilk,
Therefore don´t trust as lies unfurl
Or let revision bilk.
Truth does depend upon the word,
The public record plain
Reveals the gist of what occurred,
So let us not detain
Over the lies of men like Rove:
The facts don´t run with Karl,
Nor repetition´s ceaseless shove
Succeed the truth to gnarl.
