VINTAGE rick

It was nearly unimaginable back then: Israelis and Palestinians shaking hands on the White House lawn. It's even harder to imagine now. Remember September of '93 in this Vintage Rick!

They're keeping a list.

Complain, Complain, Complain!

By Rick Horowitz

They don't like his Broadway shows.
They don't like his standing Os.

They don't like his condiments.
They don't like his elegance.

They don't like his way with words.
They don't like his fawning herds.

They don't like his cushy life.
They don't like his pushy wife.

They don't like his limo rides.
They don't like the way he glides.

They don't like his taste in food.
They don't like his attitude.

They don't like his busy days.
They don't like his spendthrift ways.




They don't like his outside shot.
They don't like the things he's got.

They don't like his reaching out.
They don't like his growing clout.

They don't like that he likes jazz.
They don't like the fun he has.

They don't like his lofty dreams.
They don't like how calm he seems.

They don't like his Teleprompters.
They don't like his helicompters.

They don't like a thing about him.
They'd be better off without him.

They prefer a manly man.
Who rides a horse. (Who gets a tan.)

Who has a ranch. Who's used to plush.
Who clears away the underbrush.

Here's what makes them come undone:
Count the votes. They lost. He won.
