Mark Twain's War Prayer

...and Dear Lord, let us do these things to them swiftly before they have the chance to slaughter 3000 of our innocent countrymen again. Amen

...and Dear Lord, let us go into Iraq when the enemy is in Afghanistan.

And Dear Lord, give us the wisdom to realize the enemy knows no borders so after we have gone into Iraq to get the enemy that is ALSO there, please let us send them to meet you for their final judgement.

...and Dear Lord, when we get kicked out of Iraq by gun point, please let us blame it on those hatefilled Democrats so that we can still not see that we would do better to change our greedy and careless foreign policy towards the Middle East instead of trying to change the Middle East itself.

...and Dear Lord, help me find a word that rhymes with "have" so that I can win this poetry contest.

And Dear Lord, please have mercy on those who wish our defeat, those who predict it, and those who will certainly die trying to make it come true. Also, thanks for letting Adam finish his poem, though it was partisan, it was witty.

...and Dear Lord, let us end this prayer. I thank you for the finished poem, but I used up all my wit to write it and I have nothing left to fight Big Dog with.
