I come from a long line of Tennessee Democrats on my Mother's side. I remember a time when honest debate could take place within the confines of civility and respect for the President of the United States.

Today my Mother's party has abandoned any semblance of such and have eerily allowed themselves to sink to an all time low of slanderous attacks on a president in a time of war. I find this appalling.

Once people prayed for their leaders. Can we ever find our way back to something so basic and sensible again? I wonder.

Irrelevant
©2006, Patti Clark Barnett
 
You’re stuck and out of gas with no morals and no class
With no clue as to your loss or lack of traction
All you can do is bellyache about the right you’re down to taking
Talking points from the loony left reaction
 
No ideas of your own don’t stop you from droning on
In a constant stream of hate and accusation
And one thing is crystal clear down deep you don’t really care
The enemy with glee receives your condemnation
 
Chorus:
Irrelevant you’ll be with Harry Reid, Polosi, Dean
Some make your party a disgrace to this great nation
And if you don’t clean up your act of crazy rage and wild attach
I foresee a long and overdue vacation
 
It’s a shame beyond the pale how you have used the war to sell
A bill of good to denigrate the powers that be
Patriotic friend or foe double Deans or Russ Fiengold
I don’t trust a rusty sword to keep me free
 
Chorus
 
My apologies to you on the left who have a clue
An understanding of a war worth waging
Sufficient sense to know the stakes the will and time freedom takes
From conception to the birth in any nation
 
Don’t they know their cake is dough even half baked hacks should know
Their “new plan” from the Bush plan has been lifted
You must take us all for fools, think we believe the network news
No we’re anchored in the truth and we’re not drifting
