I thought I'd give it a try...

The proudly liberal group People For the American Way is running a little contest. The idea is that you submit one to three haiku having to do with the right wing; more specifically, McCain-Palin.

First prize is to be published in The Nation magazine, but I decided to do it more because I like this kind of writing exercise, helps me work the cricks out. So here's what I submitted.

An apple a day
Torture chic among the right
Ethics, what ethics?


Two campaigners less
Spooks in private life defeat
How can we elect?


Witch hunts of days past
To shut down dissenting speech
Try misdirection
