Four Republican knobs
Who don’t address jobs
Hey – as wedge it has little importance
Compared to glory hallelujah
Sticking probes up your hoohah
Religion, gay rights and abortions
Absent of plan
Slick to a man
(Okay – except for Ron Paul)
They keep accusing Obama
Of their imaginary drama
Shit don’t even play in Sioux Falls
Gingrich has lied
Prez wants “infanticide”
And don’t forget that he still “wasn’t born here”
And he’s a Muslim
What drugs are they guzzlin’?
They have plenty of sheep to be shorn here
In our recent history
It’s really a mystery
That we could ever elect GOP men
They push less tax on wealth plans,
Wars, killIing health plans,
And religion – and the myth that they’re he-men
Of course Rick “knows” Satan
As he’s masturbatin’
He knows that the devil made him do it
Him and his horns
Makin’ Rick watch them porns
But he’ll say some Hail Mary’s and screw it
And then there is Gingrich
A man who’s ka-ching rich
From lobbying on Freddy Mac’s side
He’s got Callista
And a helluva blista
Where his wallet keeps chafing his backside
Mitt, where to begin
A shit-eating grin
Some things you say seem out-of-body
Daddy made our worst car
But you’re his worst “make” by far
You keep falling apart you’re so shoddy
Which brings us to Ron
The Libertarian’s Don
The man only Ayn Rand would fuck
If you’re flooded out dude
Or rat hair fills your food
If Paul’s Prez you’re just shit outta luck
These are suits that are empty
Moe, Larry, and Shemp-y
Three stooges in search of a script
And a fourth also-ran
Thirteenth-Century man
And not a one of these nuts has a grip

I can only hope you will find some way to bring them back into the fold…

Posted by barkinginthedark | March 13, 2012, 6:12 pmThe race to debase is on. We are on the cusp of a global currency crisis which would turn the world upside down and it is the root of all the pisses you off but you don’t hit it when you write about oil speculators (that is a result of a problem not a cause). When you talk about the GOP or the rich, you dance around this topic. The current monetary system is the root of all evil in the world and although the Bushs might not be the most articulate folks, they understand the banking system and play it to their advantage. If we don’t change the banking system we will continue to leave the poor behind – adding more entitlements will strenghten those that control the money and weaken the recipients of those entitlements. Lumping Ron Paul in with the rest of the GOP candidates proves that you are missing our day’s most pressing issue. Obama either understands the system and is a willing participant or he simply trusts what he is told and is ignorant – either way his agenda might seem noble but it will not solve anything. Before gov’t can be the solution, it needs to be overhauled in a revolutionary way. I get that a Ron Paul presidency is a risk. Ron Paul would be a peaceful POSSIBILITY (may or may not work). Obama, Mitt, Newt or Rick will only kick the can down the road and prolong the inevitable. We are not yet there but getting close to a mathematical certainty of collapse or hyperinflation at some point. The 30’s would seem like a picnic if the US collapses. All those depending on gov’t subsidies should be the most concerned. Your government is actively trying to create inflation to deal with their debt problem (See QE, QE2, Operation twist, etc). Inflation is ok for those that own businesses, stocks, commodities (assets in general that are not dollars) and terrible for people that are in fixed incomes (the elderly and the poor). The ultra rich are buying farmland, buying ammunition and getting off the grid. Bill Gates and many like him could survive for years without any essential services and they are currently prepared. Are you? Want to read something that is not generated by a government think tank on this subject? Read the Currency Wars by Jim Rickards. He was hired by the gov’t to conduct war games without the military. We are currently engaged in a currency war and it is being conducted by the Federal Reserve – not congress or the president. The consequences are huge. Santorum’s masturbation habits are the least of my concern.

1. with respect, you need to get your own blog and stop using mine as a soapbox…while there are some good points in some of your statements, our ideas are pretty much on a different page.
and 2., read this thorough, concise, analysis on what Rickards suggests:

Posted by barkinginthedark | March 13, 2012, 12:27 amSorry Tony as this is what I feared from the beginning. I will part with this…The US can return to a gold standard as was the mission of JFK and Ronald Reagan (now Ron Paul). This subject is my profession.
In the last 50 years, the majority of politicians and many of those that vote for them have been hypocrits.
Good luck and sorry to anyone I may have offended.
