I fear that by the time enough folks actually decide he’s wrong for the country, we won’t have a country, only the remains of another badly run communist failure.

The world is in upheaval, the terrorists are striving for Pakistani Nukes and say their for us, we have our energy plan depending on those who hate us, and our economy is about to make the 1929 financial mess look like a great day in Amerika, if the government is allowed to ruin it any further!

We need a leader and we have a commissar instead, interested in cementing his power, not in defending, supporting or improving America.

I’m beginning to think there are no longer enough good men to fill the bridge at Concord this time, and the ‘King’ will see that we never stand as tall, or with as much honor as in the past.

I’m afraid that while our young men and women were in far places defending this country, we lost her to the ‘leftist enemy within’, and we leave them a bigger mess then they would have inherited on their return. We let them down, and now seemingly do nothing as America becomes Amerika, a wreck of a nation, and a people, even as those young people die defending us who don’t deserve it.

Iranian students stand up and die demanding freedom, and we sit around and can’t get off our butts, as Washington strips us of our rights and money, and future. Clearly, we’ve gotten the government we deserve!

Eddy Arnold - Slowpoke lyrics

You keep me waitin’
Till it’s gettin’ aggravatin’
You’re a slowpoke
I wait and worry
But you never seem to hurry
You’re a slowpoke.

Time means nothing to you
I wait and then late again
Eight o’clock, nine o’clock
Quarter to ten.

Why should I linger
Everytime you snap your finger
Little slowpoke
Why can’t you hasten
When you see the time’s a wastin’
You’re a slowpoke.

Dear, why should I keep trying to change you
It’s not the thing to do
I guess I’ll have to learn to be
A slowpoke too.

-— Instrumental -—

Why should I linger
Everytime you snap your finger
Little slowpoke
Why can’t you hasten
When you see the time’s a wastin’
You’re a slowpoke.

Dear, why should I keep trying to change you
It’s not the thing to do
I guess I’ll have to learn to be
A slowpoke too...

I'm in agreement, JOHNN.
It will be interesting to see how many show up in DC in September.
It seems that too many of us are either blind or naive.
They seem to think the Constitution will save us.
We need to ask God to Protect those young Americans fighting for FReedom and our Constitution.
Without us protecting it, the Constitution is just a piece of paper.

I worry for our children and our grandchildren.

Thank you for sharing your poems with us.
