Some things NEVER change?

Bocopro, you did NOT write this, right?   🙂  You could have!

AMAZING….I wish this sentiment from 1949 had HELD….because this is just about the time the welfare state dreamers were on their way to success!

    No, can’t take credit for that’n. Howsomever, parodies and satire in meter and rhyme ARE one of my favorite pastimes. I’ve written hundreds of ’em for the Kenyan-in-Chief, Mooch, Reidiot, Peloosi, Soundbyte Sharpton, Billary, and others.

    Here’s a ‘zample (tune is obvious):

    Mine eyes have seen the folly of the voting of the mules.
    They have chosen us an alien who doesn’t like the rules.
    He s a tax and spend progressive who thinks money comes from fools.
    Tax on, Barack, tax on.
    Glory, glory, revolution.
    Re-enact the Constitution.
    No more wealth redistribution.
    The debt keeps marching on.

    You can see him in the clubhouse near the Secret Service crowd
    With a scorecard in his pocket that he’ll never read aloud
    Cause the only thing he’s ever done of which he can be proud
    Is campaign on TV.
    Glory, glory revolution.
    Re-enact the Constitution.
    No more wealth redistribution.
    The truth is plain to see.

    We have heard his boring gospel about taxing of the rich
    So that they will pay their fair share to support his bait and switch
    Which just goes to prove that he’s no more than a son of a bitch
    Who’s in over his head.
    Glory, glory revolution.
    Re-enact the Constitution.
    No more wealth redistribution.
    The blacks have been misled.

    He hath blared out from his pulpit the election he has won
    Which gives him the right to call the play that he would like us run
    Even if it causes downfall that will see us all undone;
    His pretense knows no bounds.
    Glory, glory revolution.
    Re-enact the Constitution.
    No more wealth redistribution.
    Hypocrisy abounds.

    In the dust and grime of Kenya, Bo was sired in flake by fraud
    But his handlers rewrote history which liberals applaud
    Now he swings both ways at bat behind his media facade;
    False turtle on a post.
    Glory, glory revolution.
    Re-enact the Constitution.
    No more wealth redistribution.
    In four years we’ll be toast.

    Bocopro…terrific lyrics! Of course it’s not yours, but I knew it reminded me of your stuff 🙂

    AOW….that’s one thing that many politicos won’t say…One NEVER hears from the politicals on either side how ENTITLEMENTS is why Hillary has any votes at ALL.

    BROTHER, EVERYBODY!: The Left is pulling out ALL the stops! Yahoo has a headline video showing Trump insulting that handicapped reporter again! This morning! From the headline, I thought it was new and was thinking “Oh, no, NOW who’d he insult!?” They’re digging into the early horrid stuff Trump did (please don’t tell me he wasn’t insulting him, it’s insulting to my intelligence) in the past, that’s all been covered months ago, EVERY little thing they can find on him this week.
    They are unrelenting for Hillary.

    It seems simple to me; Shrillary’s plans to rob Peter (the investment class) to pay Paul ( the “taker’s” class) will do nothing but exacerbate the trend portended in the featured Daily News clipping above. Whether or not Trump [can] reverse this trend remains to be seen but, at least, [he] recognizes this problem and proposes viable solutions. Should he prevail it [could] be a positive sign that the American people are behind such a reversal, which also remains to be seen. One thing, for sure, should Shrillary prevail it WILL be the coup de grace for this once great country.

    OK, here I go again preaching to the choir!

    On a more timely note, I’m sure everyone has heard the old poem “Rock Me To Sleep” by Elizabeth Allen (written around the turn of the 19th to 20th century). Begins with the line “Backward, turn backward, O Time in thy flight.”

    Well, I came across a site today which parodied it. Also had lyrics for a Slim Whitman song based on the poem. (Here’s one version of the original poem in case you’ve never seen it: http://maggiemoontarot.com/?p=278 )

    Anyway, I just had to revise it for the nonce (mea culpa — it’s what I do):

    Trumpward, turn Trumpward, O votes in thy doubt.
    Let us be safe again, inside and out.
    People, come back from the liberals’ myth.
    Give our lawmakers something to work with.

    Take from our borders the ludicrous sieve.
    Keep out the intruders with troubles to give.
    Free up our courtrooms from nuisance lawsuits.
    Unchain our farms to grow grains and good fruits.

    Rebuild our armies to protect our shores.
    Give us health care that won’t add to our sores.
    Make police proud again to do their jobs.
    Stop giving comfort to deadbeats and mobs.

    Get rid of laws that are far out of date.
    Give power back to each sovereign state.
    Stop letting Congress be just a career.
    Throw out the lobbyist on his fat rear.

    Build our economy healthy and strong.
    Kick out the thieves who have done it all wrong.
    Remind central government who works for whom.
    Unshackle commerce and let business boom.

    Don’t bring in those who kill Christians and Jews.
    Give the world reason to expect good news.
    Bring back the spirit that made this place great.
    Regain your senses before it’s too late.

    Hillary Clinton’s niece is voting for Donald Trump
    New York Post 8 hours ago
    Hillary Clinton’s niece is turning her back on her “selfish” aunt — to endorse Donald Trump for president. “I support Donald Trump 100 percent,” Macy Smit, the daughter of Bill Clinton’s half-brother Roger Clinton, declared to RadarOnline. “I have been a Democrat my entire life, but Trump is what we need right now — somebody who is going to stand up for us. I think at this point Hillary just wants it for the history books — to be the first woman president for selfish reasons,” the Tampa hairstylist continued. Smit, 25, admitted she’s never met Hillary Clinton, and said that side of the family doesn’t think much of her.

    SHE’S NEVER MET HER AUNT? What does THAT say about this family?

    I herd it said that Shrillary has “stood-up for women and children for 30 years”. So if that’s true what more is needed now? OH, it didn’t take! Well then why more of her? Women and children, as well as everyone else, will never fair better than what a vibrant economy can provide; which [she] is poised to destroy. Please see my previous comment.

    Ed, I used to live in Woodland Hills, which is practically Tarzana, by the way, Tarzana being named because;….
    “In 1910, however, several years before he achieved success as a writer, Burroughs had purchased 550 acres in the heart of Southern California’s San Fernando Valley. (Burroughs later wrote that the Valley represented “all that was good and wholesome in Southern California, in contrast to big, bad Hollywood.”) He dubbed his land “Tarzana Ranch,” after the sleepy little community in which it was situated, and his creation of a character named “Tarzan” two years later can hardly be considered a coincidence. Because Tarzana did not become an “official” community with its own post office until 1930 the legend has arisen that the town was named after Burroughs’ ape man, but actually the reverse is true.”

    Not quite, most people still feel TarzanA was named AFTER Tarzan, and it still feels that way even after reading that blurb….Obviously Buroughs had TARZAN on his brain when he named his ranch….so…. 🙂

    Just wait – ‘they’ are working up a major woman assault on Trump. He’s said some stupid things. But NOTHING he’s said or done tops THIS: “We need to support small business because they create 2/3 of all new jobs. So I’m for a NATIONAL minimum wage.”

    Interviewer: “Can you explain your comment that you’re for open borders?”

    ADDENDUM TO MY PREVIOUS COMMENT:
    If you really care about “children” you better start considering the horrendous debt that’s accumulating and will fall upon them. One thing is for sure Shrillary will only make that worse, while pretending to care as she drives up the debt that [they] will face.

    I think that I brought this up before but:
    The Shrillary faction has complained about college grads not getting jobs in order to pay-back their student loans. This because of not enough jobs. So her answer is to provide “free college” so we will have no jobs for the increase of grads who stole their [free] tuition from the investment class who would have, otherwise, created jobs. The expected result: More college grads., fewer jobs! Shilliray and her minions are more dangerous and should be exterminated like the cockroach infestation in my college apartment (while I WORKED to achieve)! Shrillary is more dangerous than any cockroach that ever lived and yet she is allowed to live; go figure!
