Poore Richard's Really Poore Almanack


LAST OF THE INFAMOUS NEWSPAPER COLUMNS
The last two years worth of “hometown newspaper” columns from Dahlonega, Georgia
that led to Richard Van Ingram being banned from the only news and opinion organ in the county.

Limericks For Our Times
April 2006

There once was a king called Dubya,
To learn about The Constitution he wouldn’t trouble ya –
Hired Gonzalez & Crew
To make up "Constitution, Part II"
And if you don’t like it you can get in the next shipping crate to Dubayeh.

There once was a Condoleezza named Rice,
When she got angry her face didn’t look very nice.
Held her breath till she turned blue,
Scared the entire White House crew,
So before telling her bad news now they think twice.

Rumsfeld was very easy to pick on,
Any insult you tossed at him would probably stick on –
He got really sore
With generals telling him how to wage war
So he burned their commissions by Flicking his Bic on.

Dick Cheney’s a man we know well.
We bought everything the old boy had to sell.
In Halliburton he owns stock –
Mysteriously, they got the tax money to rebuild Iraq;
But it’s ok, we’ve lost our senses, this doesn’t smell.
