hurry, hurry, hurry

Hurry, hurry, hurry, step right up, it's the parade of carnival clowns, side show shams, and high flying freaks ready to lie, deny and create division and fear. It's a three ring fiasco featuring folk who need no truth, rely on irreverent religious dogma, and love to divide and conquer. They are professionals at pleasing the bigot, promoting the fable, and prompting slurs, scapegoating, and sympathy for those who need to find someone else as the cause of their own undesirable life.

Hurry, hurry, hurry, the line up of potential players ready to politic for President from the Republican/Bagger Party are meeting the press, writing books, channeling the talking points of talking heads such as Hannity, Beck, Limbaugh and O'Reilly, and speaking out loud reciting fiction and refusing to admit to the fact that what they say or said is a lie.

Hurry, hurry, hurry its time to hear the ruminations from the Republican/Baggers about the President being a Kenyan, a Communist, a Socialist. It is time to learn that first we must stop abortion rights for women before we find jobs for the rest of America. It is time to be reminded that in order to create jobs we must remove jobs especially if those job holders are a part of a union. It is time to question the Gays again as to their perceived corruption of marriage and their infiltration into the armed services changing the army khaki into lavender jump suits.

Hurry, hurry, hurry we must be reminded that in the election of 2011, a statement was made by those who voted that any money for social services, feeding the poor, helping the disabled, comforting the elderly are to be replaced by not increasing the taxes for the 2% of the wealthiest of Americans. We must be urged to pitch in, give up, do without as poor to middle class citizens, but support the tax breaks for corporations who continue to rake in the profit but refuse to spend anything on hiring, or outsourcing their new hires. We must be bombarded with the philosophy small government is good unless it deals with your body, your love life your expression of religion or your need to earn a decent wage.

Hurry, hurry, hurry the greatest show on Earth is coming to America, the primaries for the election of President of the United States, bringing with it a new slew of slight of hand con men/women, an onslaught of mercenaries from God, a cadre of people who can channel the founding fathers, better understanding their interpretation of the Constitution and bigots and haters using the flag, apple pie and the Bible as a disguise to infuse fear and loathing.

Hurry, hurry, hurry listen to the words of P.T. Barnum as he said "...a sucker is born every minute..." and watch as the Tea Bag Brigade, the donors to the 700 Club, the viewers of FOX, the followers of Focus on the Family, the witch hunters of National Organization of Marriage, the lobbyists for the Koch Brothers all fall prey to the pandering, the panic and the apostle like behavior of adulators like Newt Gingrich, false prophets like Mike Huckabee, millionaires like Mitt Romney, quitters like Sarah Palin , liars like Michelle Bachman and segregationists like Haley Barbour. Watch as they stand in line to purify America from the sins of women seeking protection for their own bodies, the LGBT community wanting equal not separate but equal, middle class families wanting a decent wage, and those who want to keep a separation between church and state.

Hurry, hurry, hurry because 2012 is coming up fast and if you stay home, lag behind, don't care then the circus will open its big top and you will be left cleaning the trash, the toilets, and finding an America where the rich remain rich, Evangelical Christianity the national religion, and your body, beliefs, and being will be governed by a Big Government.

Hurry, hurry, hurry...
