Just that if he's self-interested enough, maybe he'll pull Labor out of the government, and Kadima will collapse like a wet noodle. Then, if he runs for PM, trust me, I'll support anyone in Likud who'll run against him. He'll have served his purpose.</p>Rahel commented on 'A pre-Winograd Haiku throwdown'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef00e5503eed9388332008-01-29T18:33:24Z2008-02-14T04:54:48ZRahelhttp://elmsintheyard.blogspot.comOur state, right or wrong.

<p>dfb1968... It's a shame this is a family site cause I have some great political Limericks that feature 'Nantucket' at the end of the first line. :-)</p>
<p>efrex... I had a hunch that would draw you out of hiding. :-)</p>
<p>Fuzzy Face... I suspect you're right.</p>
<p>Dave (Balashon)... I doubt there will be much movement... on, or otherwise. Sad.</p>
<p>psachya... He's not going anywhere. Another self-interested hack.</p>
<p>Baila... Me... criticize? No, I'm happy for the participation. But in terms of Haiku, don't knock it until you've tried it. Having to crystallize your thoughts into 17 syllables is a wonderful exercise in searching for (and hopefully finding) clarity.</p>

<p>so:</p>
<p>There once was a man from kadima<br />
who was hated by most of the medina<br />
Winograd came 'round<br />
but nothing was found<br />
so he'll continue to screw the regim-a.</p>

Who, when questioned, would say "Who are you"?<br />
He doesn't care if we're all dead;<br />
As long as he's "The Head";<br />
And that's why we're in such deep doo-doo.</p>
<p>Yeah, yeah, I know, it's a limerick, not a haiku.
