  • Tearing Up HRC

    A LITTLE BITTY TEAR

    Burl Ives

    A little bitty tear let me down, spoiled my act as a clown

    I had it made up not make a frown, but a little bitty tear let me down.

    The overstuffed,pompous "MSM" commentators and their vitriolic maltreatment of HRC are driving me toward overlooking all my misgivings about her. Were our presidential selection a "Mandarin" process based on choosing the most qualified, she'd easily be the first choice. If she'd give a renouncing denunciation of her earlier failure to oppose vigorously all the Bush/Cheney fascisms, I'd wholeheartedly support her. Quite frankly I'm not too stirred up by BO's message of conciliation. "Change"? The only "change" I want to see is for Democrats to start groin kicking and eye gouging all things Bush and Republican. HRC and BO need to stop sniping at each other and to focus all their energy ripping the GOPers for giving us all the Bushian travesties. HRC can tear up/lacrimate all she wants- it's a sweet little touch. What I really want to see her (or some strong Democrat) do is tear up/destroy the Bushian evil and restore dignity to the White House….. sound familiar? Outlaw torture, restore the Constitution, stop this wretched war. Fixing the economy, stopping the robber barons, and helping Americans would also be nice.
