Why is having a baby today, <br />Out of wedlock such a bombshell? <br />People are sleeping and living on city streets. <br />Poverty is experienced by those living in urban centers. <br />There is racism. <br />Bigotry and blatant hate. <br />There are those who deny others a right to live their lives! <br />Apartheid exists all over the place. <br />Wars are created based on lies! <br />Sex and the act of it is sold on prime time TV. <br />'Are you experiencing erectile dysfunction? ' <br />Have you heard today's music? <br />Have you heard the language coming out of the mouths, <br />Of these disrespecting children? <br />Why is having a baby today, <br />Out of wedlock such a bombshell? <br />Such a shock? <br /> <br />Oooohhh... <br />I see! <br />She's the daughter of a conservative, left wing, <br />NRA, soccer mom who has been selected... <br />To be the next VeePee? <br />Because of her views of the standards of life... <br />She wants to symbolize and represent! <br />Why didn't you say that? <br />Why didn't you say there was an aspect of image... <br />Needed to protect! <br /> <br />NOW HEAR THIS... <br /> <br />'I can not believe it! <br />I am appalled by such activities. <br />How on Earth can we now... <br />Uphold our unblemished Christian values! <br />This is most upsetting news! <br />This will unstabilize the very core of our foundations! <br />We must ostracize this wench, <br />For creating such an uproar. <br />We must conduct vigils at the base of Plymouth Rock. <br />And beg forgiveness of our Puritan and Quaker ancestors! ' <br /> <br />'We must. We must... <br />Shield and protect the virgins! <br />Shield and protect the virgins! ' <br /> <br />How was that? <br />That should garner a few more votes, <br />From those sitting on the fence in indecision! <br />And love their imagery symbolized!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
