Yellow-brick road is winding,
Oz's witches keep us grinding,
America is fallen to the wayside,
Deeper ditches we keep finding.
Interrogatory tell,
Web ADs smell,
Oops gate open,
Internet gone to Hell!
Washington censors rap,
Anti-piracy slap,
Outlaw the tents,
While Occupy naps.
Freedom gone awry,
Go ahead and cry,
"How now Brown Cow?"
Farm's foreclosed anyhow.
Bankers and brokers,
Gentleman smokers,
Jokers have all gone off,
To join the Hippie tokers.
What's old is new,
What's news is old,
See my newspaper blanket?
We are all bought and sold.
Let's have a Tea-party we sit in the shade,
Sitting on a limb drinking sour lemonade,
While the branches under us they keep sawing,
Smoking like bandits we keep on Hee-Hawing.
Donkey and Elephant,
Peter and Paul,
Newt and Mitt,
God save us all.
MY OPINION IS THAT THE 'BIRTH' OF THE CORPORATION AS A LEGAL ENTITY,
WAS THE BEGINNING OF THE 'DOWNFALL.' COMMERCIAL ADVERTISEMENTS ...
NEW - IMPROVED - BETTER - NEWER - MORE IMPROVED - GOODEST !!!
AMERICANS 'SWALLOWED' IT 'HOOK, LINE, AND SINKER'!
THEN, THE EPITOME OCCURRED LAST YEAR, WHEN THE ILLUSTRIOUS,
'BOUGHT AND PAID FOR' A-HOLES OF THE SUPREME COURT GAVE
CORPORATIONS OPEN 'CARTE BLANCHE'!
COVERT, 'BACK-DOOR' DEALS AND SECRET 'FINANCING' JUST WASN'T
FAST ENOUGH ... WANT TO 'KILLTHE DRAGON'? CUT ITS UGLY HEAD OFF?
RE-DEFINE 'CORPORATIONS' ... MAKE THEM ACCOUNTABLE - PROSECUTABLE -
PUNISHABLE - ALONG WITH THEIR CEO'S AND BOARDS OF DIRECTORS ...
Seems to me that freedom went awry shortly after WW II and haven't come back since. And whoever tries to work the political machine to get it back, no matter how high they climb, will be shortly overturned by biblethumpin tea-sippers who suffer from a seriously distorted view of reality.
A great commentary on our political times. It's amazing how the Internet has helped us make much ado about nothing and refocus our lives away from the essential nature of things.
Very creative and as funny as the Republican squabble over who was going to be their lackluster candidate.
From the land of the milked and honeyed here’s a few political faux pas and a bit of attitude exposed to the harsh light of a Canadian who actually has their own opinion.

God save the Queen but forget about the USA.
