Obama haiku

Alright. Let's see the creative and artistic side of you guys (and gals). Come up with your best Obommie the Commie Haiku.

Roses are red and
So is Barack Obama
Commies all around

So, I suck at haikus. He's still red.

man of little worth
pacifist
destroying my country

Unqualified joke
Concerned with games, not the war
Promises unkept

Fooler of many
Socialist as possible
Pass the ammo box

Heh, heh...I like the second one, Batt.

the chosen one has come
give up all you have
he will provide the world

promises and lies

Okay guys,

Haiku (俳句, haikai verse?) http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...peaker.svg.png listen (help·info), plural haiku, is a form of Japanese poetry, consisting of 17 moras (or on), in three metrical phrases of 5, 7, and 5 moras respectively.[1] Haiku typically contain a kigo, or seasonal reference, and a kireji or verbal caesura. In Japanese, haiku are traditionally printed in a single vertical line, while haiku in English usually appear in three lines, to parallel the three metrical phrases of Japanese haiku.[2] Previously called hokku, haiku was given its current name by the Japanese writer Masaoka Shiki at the end of the 19th century.

I was always under the impression that "mora" can be used the same way as syllables. So the first line has 5 syllables, the next has 7, then 5 again. Am I wrong here?

Nice!

I knew it was 5, 7 and 5 "syllables" but the seasonal reference is new to me.

Still funny.

Does fall come early?
No, not a winter's preview
That of our country

Dear Lord Obama
Please grant all of my wishes
No more rent for me

Congrats on peace prize
I ran out of gasoline
Make check to Stuart

My mom has sniffles
Please fix her for free today
Wealthy will pay tab

Benefit of doubt
I give you. Please don't screw us.
Leave our guns alone..

Set the stage you will
My generation's Jim carter
For next Ron Reagan...

Hows that? Did I get the structure right? Cut me a little slack guys, I'm a plumber, not an english professor...[Tooth]

Seriously, I want to give Obama the benefit of the doubt. Thats proving damn near impossible. Maybe he'll be the catalyst required to bring forth another Ronald Reagan. Better yet, a Libertarian. We can hope, right?

Economy is wreck't,
A Joke in the oval room,
Change must come sooner
