Resistance Is Still Futile

 

I agree with Donald Trump. 'though, normally, I'd scoff;

I think that the Russians must still laugh their asses off,

Gleeful that the couple million rubles that they spent

Bought them such a "useful idiot" for President.

One who won't impose the sanctions that the Congress passed.

One whose foreign policy decisions are half-assed.

One with a well-documented tendency to lie.

One who doesn't trust his NSA or FBI.

They had so much fun the last time that they're back at work;

On-line trolls pretending they're an ordinary jerk.

Then their "bots" start amplifying those extremist views -

Spreading their conspiracies, supported by fake news.

It is kinda funny - in a tragic sorta way;

I've been doing Putin's job for him (without the pay)

Each and every time that I start kicking up a fuss...

That is worth a couple laughs, except the joke's on us.

The Lesser of Two Evils?

You might think Republicans - opposed to Hillary -

Should take time to think who their alternative could be.

Hillary conspiracies, the kind that FOX News panders,

Have resulted in a surge for Vermont's Bernie Sanders.

Do they really want a guy who claims he's Socialist

Or a seasoned politician who's a realist?

(FYI: Real Socialists say Bernie isn't one...

That he's more conservative than David Cameron.)

Shouldn't they be worried Mrs. Clinton's in a slump

While their leading candidate's an idiot like Trump?

He is unelectable. Because of him, they'll lose.

I'd think Hillary's the lesser evil they would choose.

The Real Jade Helm 15 Conspiracy

(Courtesy of/slantedright2.blogspot.com)

I have met a lot of Texans; they were good to me

Even if, politically, we didn't quite agree.

All the Texans I have met were patriotic folk...

Not one seemed as if their wagon wheels were short a spoke.

I must not have met the kind who think Jade Helm 15

Is a plot for sneaking Special Forces to the scene,

Where they'll round-up dissidents and take away their guns.

U.S. military there, detaining Texan sons.

Could it be the reason why I never met that kind,

Who - just like their Governor (who's clearly lost his mind) -

Think that this conspiracy is anything but nuts

Weren't in the military?  Didn't have the guts.

If they'd ever served their country they'd know it's a lie...

If Obama were a despot, still he wouldn't try.

Jade Helm 15's being staged where long-horned cattle roam

Because it lets half our Special Forces visit home.

JFK Conspiracy Solved... It Was Us.

50 years ago today John Kennedy was shot.

Many still believe in an assassination plot:

L.B.J., the CIA, or Castro, or the mob.

Presidents could not be killed by one pathetic slob.

Looking back we all remember it as Camelot;

Dreaming of our glory days, but maybe we forgot

We were simply not a most congenial spot back then.

My mom is a Northerner who lived down South and when

She was at the Commissary they announced the news;

People started cheering and expressing racist views.

Toxic atmospheres build up and then some loser acts.

Let's not try to kid ourselves; we have to face the facts...

No one fled the grassy knoll; Lee Oswald was alone.

He was not the patsy here.  He acted on his own.

But the ugly politics and scandals of the day

Also had a passive, but important, part to play.

Maybe we should think about that as we're looking back

From our current, constant state of partisan attack.

This new generation of Americans must change...

Who knows which new lunatic is at the target range.

Across the Pond - Afghanistan: The Karzai Conspiracy Theory

Afghan President Hamid Karzai is pointing fingers. (Photo/Telegraph.Co.UK)

Karzai said the U.S. plays an underhanded role;

Working with the Taliban (behind the grassy knoll?)

Offering assistance to extremists 'cause our plan

Is to make them beg us to stay in Afghanistan.

Karzai thinks in areas (as much as 51?)

His men would already have the bad guys on the run

If it weren't for secret plans to make police look bad.

Recently he told the Afghans they were being had.

Maybe I am crazy but I don't believe a word.

It's the most ridiculous conspiracy I've heard.

They were, once, strategically important...  Times have changed.

Nowadays, 'most anywhere's more easily arranged.

Maybe if Chuck Hagel had been killed, the way they tried,

Karzai would believe that NATO leaders haven't lied.

Taliban is no-one's friend and, lest Karzai's forgot,

There's a lot of  U.S. forces out there getting shot.

Across the Pond - FOX News and the Benghazi Conspiracy

At the next - and last - debate (my anniversary),

I would bet the candidates revisit Benghazi.

I'm not sure, exactly, what the fuss is all about;

Killers of Ambassadors are terrorists.  No doubt.

Who's behind the terrorism doesn't change the fact

President did say it was a terroristic act.

In chaotic aftermaths, in countries far away,

Sorting out the details takes you more than just 1 day.

Just like Mr. Romney's statements (his came out by noon),

President Obama may have spoken up too soon.

Monday morning quarterbacking from the FOX News booth

Claims it was conspiracy to not yet know the truth.

(You won't hear FOX mention the success of that attack

May have been related to a budgetary lack.

State Department's funding cut by G.O.P. blowhards

Means that there's less money for employing extra guards.)

One thing I am certain of - the President was clear -

We will find the terrorists who did it, never fear.

Spare me the conspiracies; I'll let the crazies rant.

FOX should interview bin Laden...  Oh, that's right.  They can't.
