These Times in Rhymes: July 2, 2015 (Cuba--Trump--Christie)

A Poem by Bob B

--Cuba--

Diplomatic relations with Cuba

Are being established once again.

In 1961 our ties

Were cut and have remained so since then.

 

Our two countries are opening embassies

And easing travel and banking restrictions.

Lifting the trade embargo will be

Much more difficult, according to predictions.

 

While some are not in favor, others

Say that it's time to move forward at last.

See how this works; if things go sour,

It's back to restrictions and back to the past.

 

--Trump--

Macy's, too, has joined NBC

In severing ties with Donald Trump.

Fox News rallied--Are you surprised?--

To defend the comments of their chump.

 

Hannity says he agrees with the man.

Would you expect anything less?

How a person could take either one of them

Seriously is anyone's guess.

 

In a recent interview Trump, by the way,

Praised "traditional" marriage. Of course,

In HIS case it's pretty obvious that he

Is more in favor of "traditional" divorce.

 

--Chris Christie--

This week Chris Christie launched

His 2016 presidential bid.

He's not that well liked in his OWN state,

So whom is Christie trying to kid?

Haha, if all news was written in rhyme I might be more interested in keeping 100% up to date.
