Let us entertain you.
Let us make you smile.

Let us do a few tricks
Some old and then some new tricks
We're very versatile.

And if you're real good
We'll make you feel good
Even as we steal your votes away!

Forget the socialist,
you can't have free stuff
being miserable isn't so bad!

So, let us entertain you
and we'll have a
very
good
time!

@smiley7 Great. I found myself singing along. I have quite a fine voice, my friends tell me. But you have been gifted by the Muse of Verse (whose name I haven't researched). Bragging here: I once studied, briefly, with one of America's poet laureates--until he booted me out, recommending I write for a newspaper. So, I know talent when I see it.

The vampire party still needs to suck more money out of us and give it to their rich donors.

Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.

@Pluto's Republic "Medical neglect of the poor could expose any of us to dangerous illnesses or even to a mental health crisis like the one standing next to me."

The government cuts off mental health funding and this mentally unwell fellow goes off the deep end, finally becoming simultaneously an urban victim and urban avenger.

@Alligator Ed

The world thinks Americans have gone off the deep end — with no national health care and limited mental health services. The US has become simultaneously a global victim (Russia, Russia, Russia) and a global avenger.

is having a major sad right now.

Our 'Glorious Amy', blah, blah, blah.... (they endorsed her for the primary, just a couple of days ago). Egg, see face.

(Edited)

Funnily enough, we could hear the booing coming from her cancelled rally last night, although we weren't sure what it was at the time.

I’d like to share a revelation that I’ve had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify neoliberals and I realized that you’re not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you neoliberals do not.

You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every resource on the left is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Neoliberals are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You’re a plague and we are the cure.
