Ron Paul Poetry: I Call Him "Al"

by Rep. Ron Paul, Republican

A mob of
black demonstrators,
led by the 'Rev.' Al Sharpton,
occupied and closed
the Statue of Liberty
recently, demanding
that New York be renamed
Martin Luther King City
"to reclaim it for our people."

Hmmm. I hate
to agree with the Rev. Al,
but maybe a name change
is in order.

Welfaria?
Zooville?
Rapetown?
Dirtburg?
Lazyopolis?

But Al,
the Statue of Liberty?

Next time,
hold that demonstration
at a food stamp bureau
or a crack house.
