More this-n-that

On Khartoum's dusty streets you hear
praise for Omar al-Bashir.
He's president of the Sudan
and also is a wanted man.
Convicted of brutality,
his countrymen do not agree;
they regard his genocide
as a matter of great pride.
How can Omar go to jail
with his country making bail?
 
 
*****************************************
 
 
Justices in their black robes
pull upon their taut earlobes,
pondering a slasher flick
that is making Clinton sick.
It is quite a hatchet-job
from the anti-Clinton mob.
What gives Justices a pause
are the vague election laws:
It it documentary
or just plain hostility?
Jumbo drinks and warm popcorn
probably they all will scorn
as Obama's team implores
that they give the film low scores,
label it a tawdry smear,
fine the maker very dear.
But, with all things being equal,
I suppose there'll be a sequel.
