Response to "The Response"

Rick Perry held a rally
And he called on folks to pray.
It isn’t often that you see
Such chutzpah on display.

Although the claim was everyone
Was openly invited,
It seems that only Christians,
And religious ones, were sighted.

A Buddhist, Muslim, Atheist,
Agnostic or a Jew
Would have felt a bit uncomfortable
When Jesus praises flew.

I thought that Church and State,
As it is very plainly stated,
Are supposed to be, and always have been,
Clearly separated.

In Texas though, the governor
Thought he was justified
‘Cause no matter who objected,
He had Jesus on his side.

Can this man run for President?
I shudder at the thought.
He’d destroy religious freedom
That the founding fathers sought.

There are many in America
Who should sit up and take note
That not everyone’s a Christian
And non-Christians also vote!
