The Party of Pedophiles and Pussy Grabbers
The Party of Pedophiles and Pussy Grabbers
By Anthony Squiers
The GOP: "well okay…
it never really was about morality.
It's about winning seats and wielding power.
So what if Moore’s a perv?
He's our pervert.
So what if the Great Man:
paid off a pornstar,
obstructed justice,
is a sexist, racist,
Twitterist, fool?
He gave us a judge.
And is sticking it to the poor."
Look at these as lengths,
hypocrisies willing to be bared
for the naked pursuit of power.
They use it, you know
to line their cronies’ pockets
as well as their own.
This is the Grand Old Party. The party
that exults pedophiles
and pussy grabbers.
