The 2024 election is only a few months away, and if you're not paying attention already, you'd better get started. You may wish that the Democrats were running FDR instead of Joe Biden, but I'd suggest to you that the choice between Mr Biden and a self-centered, sociopathic, misogynistic wannabe fascist makes the decision pretty simple. And consider the party that's sold itself to Der Furor as you listen to this takeoff from the Parody Project, with apologies to Billy Joel ...
In case you missed them, here are the lyrics:
They insult with a smile, they disdain compromiseThey can ruin our republic with incessant liesAnd they bully their critics on national TVThey behave like spoiled children, but this is the real GOPThey create a disaster, find others to blameThey follow their Master and never feel shameThey’re changing the rules to rewrite historyYeah, it’s a disgrace, but this is now the real GOPOh, they just think of themselves, they can only complainDo it all of the timeOh, and their candidates sound so completely insaneAnd they don’t seem to mindThey'll promise you nothing, while never concedingThey'll carelessly cut what you need to stop bleedingBut they'll root out their best, leave the worst in DCBlame it all on yourself, if you voted for this GOPMmm-mmm, mmm-mmmMmm-mmm, mmm-mmm-mmm-mmmOh, they’ve no plans to propose, they can only complainDo it all of the timeOh, and their candidates sound so completely insaneThey are out of their mindThey never are kind, but they often are cruelThey can do as they please, ‘cause they think we’re all foolsThey won't be accused, if they get their A.G.But the worst they will do is take freedom from youAnd this is now the real GOPmm-mm-mm-mm-mmmmm-mm-mm-mm-mmmmm-MM-mm-mm-MM-mmmm-MM-mm-mm-MM-mm-mm-mmm.
Have a good day and enjoy the rest of your weekend. Think very, very carefully about your vote this year, and if you are still conflicted, read the "Project 2025 Manual for Leadership" that lays out the world the GOP wants you to live in. Your vote counts more than ever as we look to the world our grandchildren will have to live in.
More thoughts coming.

ReplyDeleteHmmmmm, this may take some thought. OR, for choice 2, no thinking at all!
Spot on. I grew up around a lot of Republican fathers in my neighborhood. They'd be appalled at what the party has become.
ReplyDeleteEVERYONE has to vote. There are many of them but we are more! I forget who said the idea in voting for the lesser of two evils is that you want less evil. Does realizing that take a lot of intelligence or wisdom? And, personally, I don't think Biden is evil.
