Race for the White House - Across the Pond

President Obama has received some recent flack;

Once again, the target of a partisan attack.

Romney says the choice to kill Bin Laden was a snap...

Angry that Obama seemed to take a victory lap.

I did not see any ships or flight-suits on the man,

Just a simple speech he gave while in Afghanistan

Where, again, he thanked the troops; saluted SEAL Team 6.

While, at home, Republicans got in some dirty licks.

Romney once claimed capturing Osama wasn't worth

U.S. forces trying to move heaven and the earth

Going into Pakistan; but - now - he says he would.

Won't acknowledge that the President did something good.

Mr. S. accuses me of favoring a side.

It is his opinion every politician's lied.

Says the fact Republicans, of late, have made me nuts,

While forgetting Democrats all hated Bush's guts,

Means I'm being partisan; as bad as FOX and Friends.

I think he's too cynical, for one side clearly bends

All the facts to "talking points" they parrot endlessly.

"Spiking footballs"? They should check the mirror, seems to me.
