You know what's missing on the Intertubes? (well, if you read my title the cat is already out of the bag)
Haiku written for the right wing!
For some inexplicable reason the right has not yet embraced this literary form. Maybe that's because right-wingers can't use the left half of their brain. Or is it the right half? OK, they generally don't use either half. So being a generous soul, I'm offering some haiku written from a right-wing perspective to get them started.

The words of Jesus made clear in the holy scripture: No stem cell research!
Mexico invades they mow our lawns for a song not sung in English

Brave Republicans protecting us with torture Justified? Who cares?

where is your flag pin? do you hate America? must be a hippie

Fox News programming: hosts yell louder than their guests to avoid bias
...
McCain leads his flock deep into the Bush pasture watch out for cowpies
...
Damn! ideas gone hard to write right wing haiku devoid of substance
...
Please feel free to contribute your own ideas. Remember that a haiku consists of 5 syllables on the first line, 7 syllables on the second line, and 5 syllables again on the third line.

7. The dearth is a result of all the uncreative "trolls" that post here these days. |
|
The only thing they're good at is dividing and conquering.
BTW, great haiku!
