In 2008 Obama ran a campaign sharp as a tack,
Media accepted the critique of a Bush Bucolic,
Now in Office we see an Administration on the rack,
Barrak in summer has been totally shambolic!

Good morning, all!


Obama's slimy minion are suffering from sudden anxiety and distress
Since their own constituents have de-railed the Messiah's shambolic mess
Known as Health Care, loaded with tax funded Death Panels and abortions
While conservatives reveal losses of freedoms of huge proportions
That cannot be spun or called distractions or out of context distortions
So the Dems are running amok and moving deck chair on their sinking Titanic
Rightly frightened of 2010, when their political losses will be gigantic!



Jack.

The last classic act I saw was Kiss in 2001. It was a phenomenal show. Ted Nugent opened for them. I could have gone to see Three Dog Night but I would have been afraid of being trampled by bloomer-throwing Blue-Hairs.

Course back then, you only had three TV channels. So your options for entertainment were limited. ;-)
