IF, by Rudyard Crippling
If you can lose your jobs but hope your exports be increased
If you can hope your plans for windmills breed success
If you can tax them more and yet the downsizing be ceased
If you can raise the debt and still survive the mess
If you can hold your head up high despite the polls
If you can throw your friends and allies ‘neath the bus
If you can ram the healthcare through to meet your goals
If you can crash and burn and blame it all on us
If you can leave the country bitter, broke and sore
If you can put your commie friends in highest place
If you can drive the ship of state upon the shore
If you can lie to all with still a smile upon your face
If you can do these things and know that you’re the One
Then you are truly Oba Man, my son
