Schlock and Pshaw in Princeton

The fun starts at Whiskey Fire, where blogger Thers has composed a poem in heroic couplets in response to a Princeton-based warblogger who still can't stop giggling over the absolutely outrageous bumper sticker he put on his car, just to show those anti-war lefties a thing or two.

No gibbering from Thers, however:

So, my classy, darling TigerHawk,
  How special 'tis to hear you squawk
  Of how there's simply nothing slicker
  Then some dumbass bumpersticker
  That says "Peace Had a Chance!"
  (Ha! & I bet per you, fags dance in France!
  This wingnut snark is a tedious thing,
  Drink deep, who cares - 'tis just blathering.)

  O! TigerHawk!
  Your slogan just might pass for clever
  If you could perhaps endeavor
  To explain why if the nation sees as stupid
  A war that's long gone putrid,
  We should blame this nightmare on all those
  Who told you fucks to shut your nose
  When the Iraq cheerleading
  Was about to lead to bleeding
  Of soldiers, kids, and moms and dads-
  Because now we KNOW we've all been had.

Thers's verse has already drawn the appreciative eye of none other than James Wolcott, so we've already got some Big Time Blogger momentum on our side.

Spread the word, New Jersey bloggers! Let's make sure this Princeton turkey buzzard gets the credit he deserves.
