[Move over, Frank, here's the real Chairman of the Fraud.]

And now, the end is near;
And so I face, history’s verdict.
My friends, I exploited fear,
With an assist, from Mr. Turd Dick.

I’ve lived, a life that’s bull.
I went from drunk, to a more dry way;
But still, I acted high,
I did it … Lie Way.

Regrets, I’ll admit a few
But then again, too much to mention.
I did, what I had to do
Crimes under the, Geneva Convention.

I plunged ahead, without a course;
Each reckless step, along Baghdad’s highway,
But more, much more than this,
I did it … Lie Way.

Yes, EVERYtime, I’m sure you knew
Even a pretzel, I couldn’t chew.
But through it all, there was no doubt,
That I was just, an arrogant lout.
I had the gall, and came up small;
And did it Lie Way.

I’ve spun the truth, and stayed aloof
Both New Orleans, economy losing.
And now, the mess I leave,
I find it all, so damn amusing.

To think, I did all that;
And may I say – not in a shy way,
Oh No, oh no not me,
I did it … Lie Way.

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not WMD, then he gets caught.
To act just like, the Veep’s trained seal
With the devil, I made a deal
The record shows, I got exposed
And did it … Lie Way!

The outlook wasn’t brilliant, for the GOP on election day
The polls showed loss of Congress, what with Iraq, and Foley gay
And when Allen got “Macaca’d,” and Santorum blew PA
Republicans were so desperate, they fell on their knees to pray

Evangelicals were staying home, suffering loss of faith
But some hoped for worldly wonder, beyond the current eighth
They thought, “If Dubya could just jawbone, of terror and tax cuts”
We’d put up even money now, that we won’t take it up the butts

But Cheney preceded Dubya, as did also SECDEF Rummy
And the former was a war criminal, while the latter was a dummy
So upon that stricken multitude, with all their campaign cash
There seemed but little chance of Dubya, getting to talk his trash

But Cheney jive-talked Russert, to the wonderment of all,
And Rummy, much despised, for once wasn’t completely off the wall
And when the dust had lifted, and fatcats saw what had occurred
There was Rummy dazzling the press corps, and Cheney flipping them the bird

A great roar rose up from born-agains, rednecks and John Birchers;  It rumbled through the Jesus camps, it rattled in the churches
It pounded in the oil suites, and recoiled upon flat taxes
For Dubya, mighty Dubya, was gonna slam the Evil Axis

There was strut in Dubya’s manner, but not a hint of grace
There was “John Wayne” in  Dubya’s bearing, and a smirk curled Dubya’s face
And when, responding to the cheers, this ne’er-do- well prodigal son
No stranger in the crowd could doubt, Dubya’d never cut and run

Ten thousand suits were watching as he checked the teleprompter
They loudly booed Pelosi as Dubya tried in vain to stomp her
Then while a video showed Howard Dean, goin’ thru his trademark scream
Defiance flashed in Dubya’s eye, and the crowd had a wet dream

But now a bulletin from CNN, came hurtling through the air
And Dubya stood a-watching it in haughty grandeur there
Close by the Great Decider, the bad news unheeded sped‚
“We’ll stay the course,” said Dubya. “Civil War!,” Wolf Blitzer said

From the seats, with no blackpeople, came a muffled roar; Like the beating of Katrina, upon New Orleans’ ill-fated shore
“Kill him! Kill Wolf Blitzer!” shouted one from Halliburton’s crew
And it’s likely they’d have killed him, had they known he was a Jew

With a smile of Christian charity great Dubya’s visage shone
He bade the channel changed, but said “leave the TV on”
He signaled “turn up the volume”, then Olbermann glumly said …
But Dubya ignored the message: “Fifty more in Baghdad dead!”

“Fraud!” cried the maddened thousands, and echo answered “Fraud!”
But Dubya quieted the lynch mob, rich as the House of Saud
They saw his face grow stern and cold, they saw his muscles strain
And he threatened more invasions, using bases in Bahrain

The sneer is gone from Dubya’s lip, his teeth are clenched in hate
He sputters with cruel invective, though Iraq is a failed state
And now the commercial break is over, and now the bad news rings
And now the air is shattered by the cry of Dubya’s stings

Oh, somewhere in Guantanamo the sun is shining bright
A gay band is playing in Frisco, where hearts are skipping light
And somewhere Dems are laughing, as Congress is made anew
But there’s no joy for Dubya — Laura and dog Barney voted Blue!
