“Books are like seeds. They can lie dormant for centuries and then flower in the most unpromising soil.” (Carl Sagan); “Nothing ever dies on the Internet.” (anon.); “This is not your father’s Oldsmobile.” (Madison Ave. [m]adman). My posts amalgamate these three philosophical elements into one novel experience; they champion critical thinking, human dignity / equality, levelheaded / even-handed / liberty-based governance and solid environmental stewardship. C’mon in!
It makes PERFECT sense. A Not Safe For World, FAR FROM PERFECT, obscene, fake prez inspires PERFECT, genuine, American patriots / balladeers (“stage name” The Founding Fathers), to compose The Day Democracy Died… a NSFW, mildly profane, PERFECT parody of the Don McLean folk/rock classic… American Pie.
The Founding Fathers… in the order of their appearance… are George Washington, John Adams, James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton and John Jay. Their warning to the American electorate…
Failure to take their lyrical sentiments seriously and vote, accordingly, on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, WILL result in Despot Donald J. Trump’s second term and, indeed, make 2020’s Election Day, The Day Democracy Died.
As most of us know, these days, the word “PERFECT” does get bandied about a bit carelessly. But… not always…
In my post, just prior to this one, I discussed how Democrats should react to Donald Trump’s State of the Union Address. Well… this post certainly lives up to the saying…
“You can’t make this stuff up!”
Just prior to the fake prez stepping up to the dias to address America and the world… per protocol… he presented to both VP Mike Pence and U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi a complimentary copy of his speech.
And then, we were forced to endure approximately eighty long minutes of The World According to Grump. To say the least, anyone who still believes in the Real America found Trump’s / Grump’s narrative…
(btw, fans of acrostics can readily sum up / slim down that above, lengthy list in one word.
For those of us who did manage to stay awake and stay till the bitter end, it was well worth it!
Just prior to the fake prez’s departure, We the People were treated to an OMG MOMENT… namely… being eyewitness to a PERFECT, non-verbal critique of the Trumpian content.
U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tore up her copy of Donny’s speech.
• I actually got to see this all go down in real time.
• And I’ve never been more proud of an American.
• I’ve never been more proud to be an American.
What a brilliant way to put a narcissist in his place, critique his ghost written falsehoods and remind him that… had decency and justice prevailed… he would have never lasted long enough as POTUS to even deliver his speech at all.
Pelosi’s unspoken reminder to Donny…
He has avoided a Constitutional Conviction and Ouster for the very reason that the House Impeached him… namely… he’s the most corrupt Oval Office Occupant, ever, who was able to easily corrupt the U.S. Senate’s Republicans.
