anything goes and goes

In the song"Anything Goes" music and lyrics by Cole Porter, there are a few phrases which when sung say, "...the world has gone mad today, and goods bad today, and blacks white today, and days night today..." The song talks about the crazy days on an ocean liner in the 30's. The time when the world seemed to change. and all the known rules were turned up side down.

In the song now being sung by the Republican party leadership, the not so neutral Republican Right Wing "entertainment haters, the lyrics go,"... anything the President does is bad", "...anything that means help to the poor is wrong", "...anything that includes fair and equitable and seems to be in favor of the average American is Un-American", and "...anything that can be said no to is worth agreeing with."

When have we lived in a time of American history when we are told that the President receiving a Noble Peace Prize is laughable and a losing proposition for America. When do we witness a group of people applauding at the loss of an invitation to host the Olympics, and pride ourselves in not bringing the world to America. When do we proudly lie about facts and truth and decide that if the fabrication is about the President it doesn't matter; because even though he was elected fairly and squarely in a democratic process, the results don't count and we can over look the Man and the Office.

Anything goes it seems in this country this time around. Anything goes so it seems because it seems not many people in the position to stop anything from going, are even trying.

As bad as the Republican spin machine and the mechanics who make that machine work seem to be, the spineless, back boned less, no guts less Democrats just let the machine spin and spin.

One lyric which seems to hold true, from the song Anything Goes, "...the world has gone mad to today and goods bad today..." Kind of scary when sung out loud!

What is happening to America? And why are we not trying to stop anything from going?
