The Fourth of July
“In my mind I can’t study history no more”
So you’re declaring your independence from all rational thought for the 4th of July!
“But our long national nightmare will not be over even if a Democrat is elected President. You see there is gerrymandering, a Republican Supreme Court, and red states that are strictly red, in all branches of government.”
What a load of baloney. Your presumption is that, obviously, ONLY Republicans want war. Who lied to get us into the Vietnam War? John F. Kennedy got us involved acting unilaterally, but it was that evil Republican Lyndon Baines Johnson who used the phony Gulf of Tonkin incident to send half a million Americans to Vietnam, more than 55,000 of whom would never come home. I know you dropped out of college, but did you EVER study American history? Have you ever used Wikipedia?
We’ve had Democratic presidents with a Democratic Congress and a liberal Supreme Court and your Utopian vision of America has yet to be realized.
“the truth is we need impassioned lefties to make our nation be aware of what’s at stake”
Well, you’ve got that in the 25 candidates vying for the Democratic presidential nomination. Free healthcare for illegal immigrants, cancelation of $2.6 trillion dollars in student debt, free college, Medicare For All, open borders, no more ICE, the Green New Deal – the lefties have got the floor! And who is going to pay for all this stuff? The Koch brothers? George Soros? Bill Gates? Warren Buffett? Oprah Winfrey?
“The “Wall Street Journal” told the story, but believe me, the rank and file Republicans don’t read that paper behind a paywall.”
Of course, YOU know only Republicans are too cheap to subscribe to the WSJ, Such ignorant bigotry and hate!
“The elites changed the game and you didn’t get a vote. They call it globalization.”
How did “the elites” change the game and when was there supposed to be a vote? Your fave company Apple moved to China. There was no “vote”. It’s modern economics and the Internet. Are you still using a 24k modem and surfing the web on AOL? LOL!
“Can you say Putin? He just declared the age of liberalism was dead, and he’s Trump’s best friend, a guy who couldn’t possibly have meddled in our election.”
When did Putin make that declaration? And who says he is Trump’s best friend? The President has imposed many new sanctions against Russia. You need to pay attention and catch up before you start lecturing us on politics. We didn’t subscribe to your music blog to listen to you rant and spew your anger and hate against Republicans. Start a political blog if you think that’s what your subscribers want to read about. Enough with this offensive, ignorant, and silly bait and switch.
“Maybe we need a draft. If your ass was on the line, where Trump keeps placing our troops, you’d be questioning these activities.”
There’s a great idea for your “impassioned lefties” – require women to register and let’s start drafting our military forces. That will guarantee a Democratic President in 2020!
“The poor are ripped-off and taken advantage of in this country day in and day out.”
49% of all income earners pay NO income tax and many receive money FROM the IRS through the EITC program. Then there’s welfare, housing subsidies, food stamps and healthcare subsidies. Oh, yeah, someone is getting ripped off day in and day out. And now your “impassioned lefties” want free college and free healthcare for anybody who steps across our border. You fellas have ALL the answers!
“their spending keeps the economy humming. That’s right, everybody needs food and clothing and a roof over their head. Our country runs on public spending.”
Not if the public spending comes from other taxpayers! Why not just print out trillions of dollars and give it all away to the poor? Are you REALLY this uneducated and dense?
“And now all you can do is work in an un-air conditioned Amazon warehouse so wankers can get their products immediately.”
And who exactly are these “wankers” you mention? “The “deplorables”? Your phony intellectual and moral superiority is offensive to everybody. If you hold a job, it must be in an un-air conditioned Amazon warehouse and it you buy products on Amazon, you are a “wanker”. Meanwhile you fly first class around the world and hob nob with the rich and famous while you impart your wisdom about music and entertainment in a blog that frequently is nothing but a mean-spirited hateful angry attack against President Trump and all Republicans.
Make up your mind – are you a music blogger or left coast political pundit?
Thank you for your sharing. I am worried that I lack creative ideas. It is your article that makes me full of hope. Thank you. But, I have a question, can you help me?
