WHITE HOUSE SHILL So the White House got caught With a sort of Shill in the Press Corps To get the Spokesman and the Pres. Off the hook and even more. He took a Quote from Limbaugh That was not a Quote at all And asked the Pres. all about it And that started the downfall. I guess Reality of the Truth Is something They don’t think we Need Or Fear if we knew what it was It might be something we might Heed. Don’t know why I should expect different Guess that’s the way it’s always been A politician’s way is say one thing Then change it and Lie to us again. I keep hoping it will get better That one will Run who we can Trust But with so many self-serving ways Someday our Country will go Bust. Whether Republican or Democrat Most all of them are just the same And those who do try to do Right Soon find themselves out of the Game. Some want that "New World Order" And If we do not change our ways And make it run by, "We, the People!" We will run out of Freedom’s Days. 10 Feb 2005 WE, THE PEOPLE We, the people of these United States To form a more perfect union Do, hereby ordain and reestablish This American Constitution - To promote a general Welfare - Provide a common Defence - And to establish equal Justice In a setting from whence We, the people of this Great Nation In safe Tranquillity Can secure all the Blessings Of guaranteed Liberty. AMENDMENT I We have the Right to Assemble - Freedom of Press and Speech - The Right for all to Petition - And all Religions to Preach. AMENDMENT II We have the Right to a Militia For State Security - The Right to keep and bear Arms - One more Guarantee. AMENDMENT III In times when there is Peace Then the Right to Commandeer Possessions by the Soldier The Law says, "No.", it's clear - But if it is in Wartime Then, for those who live its' Hell The Law says, we must open doors - Provide them a place to Dwell. AMENDMENT IV Illegal Searches are Prohibited - As for Seizures, it's the same Unless a Warrant has been issued That states specific Place and Name. AMENDMENT V No person without Due Process Shall be Tried for any Crime - And for any one Offense Shall be Indicted just one time - No one shall have to Testify Against themselves, if they do - Life, Liberty, and Property To be Protected by Laws too. AMENDMENT VI One accused of Crime has Right To a speedy public Trial - To a Jury of his Peers - To Legal Counsel all the while - To confront his Accusers - To have Witness for his side - To be Convicted by the Proof - Not by things merely implied. AMENDMENT VII The Right to Jury Trial Shall always be preserved - Except, as is Provided The Judgment will be Observed. AMENDMENT VIII No Excessive Fines will be imposed - Excessive Bail is not permitted - No Cruel, Unusual Punishment Is to be Inflicted. AMENDMENT IX Those Rights listed herein Shall not take away From those retained by the People Or the Will, of what they say. AMENDMENT X The Laws other that those stated Shall be written by each State By the Will of the People - To unique problems, they'll relate. These First through Tenth Amendments Of our Constitution Are the most important For our Freedoms' Resolution - We must always Protect them And not let them slip away For, though they don't work perfectly This World has not a better way.
