North Carolina Justice Has to Show Its Hand!

Mike responds to the Bar today.

We're expecting no surprise

We know all we need to know

Of his "Fantastic Lies."

.

We know all we need to know

Of how he shades the truth

To the court and to the media:

Prosecutorial abuse.

.

We know all we need to know:

Tried to make poor Elmo flip.

.We read Gottlieb's "recall" notes,

Then, Crystal's "rewrite" of the script.

.

The no-wrong answer line-up

Yes, we know Nifong's game.

The only thing we wait to see...

Does the Bar have any shame?

.

We saw the pretty hand-tap

For those who "nifonged" Gell.

So what IS justice in Carolina?

The reaction NOW will tell.

.

Will the Bar just smile and fondly say

"Dear Mikey, oh, for sure.

This is no big deal to us.

Go and sin no more."

.

Will they show America

Carolina likes it Mikey's way?

And Carolina prosecutors

Game the system everyday?

.

Will the Bar be more than Good ole Boys

Covering Mikey's derriere?

What IS Carolina justice?

What IS tolerated there?

.

We know all we need of Mike.

But is he the State Bar's wayward son?

Is he a Carolina Outcast?

Or is this the way THEY LIKE IT DONE?
