Dear Friends, Sooner or later the money will run out,Then the dependents will have to pout,A Ponzi scheme,A bankrupt theme,That has to end in an economic rout. The elite do ride about town,Smiling from under a crown,Filled with glee,Never as … Continue reading →

Lessons From Iran

Posted on January 11, 2026 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, people are people and if you push them far enough, they will erupt. Even a rabbit will bite. I have to wonder if that’s what’s happened in Iran? The recent turmoil with hundreds perhaps … Continue reading →

Language and Manipulation

Posted on January 7, 2026 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, there is what is and what we think is. To sharpen the point, there is the reality of a thing and how we think of it. Take justice for example, there is the reality … Continue reading →

Dear Friends, Yellow journalism is all the rage,Putting political truth in a cage,The good to roast,The Washington Post,Protecting pedophiles is hard to gauge. There once was a man in Plainfield,He stole wood wheeled and dealed,Never worked a day,Frittered time away,And … Continue reading →

Dear Friends, Winston is happy in his maze,Participating in despotic plays,But sweat he must,His morals of rust,Committing atrocities in many ways. AOC and Bernie are quite the hypocrites,Marxist agitator devils if the label fits,They demand our rights,Deny them to whites,And … Continue reading →

Ivy League Reputations

Posted on January 4, 2026 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, the progressive long march through the institutions has culminated in the collapse of the Ivy League’s reputation. We have all smelled the stench of rot emanating from them for a while. Moreover it’s long … Continue reading →

Dear Friends, Evil is abetted by despot and king,With euphemisms like Human Trafficking,Play with words,Glistening turds,Because calling them slavers is alienating. There is an AG named Ken Paxton,He’s clever smart and a man of action,Seeking the corrupt,Jailing them abrupt,If we … Continue reading →

Pathological Societies

Posted on January 2, 2026 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, in a psychopathic society, like Animal Farm… any act of goodwill is taken as a sign of weakness and used against the virtuous. Psychopaths don’t reciprocate, they manipulate. Psychopathic societies are the same. Moreover, … Continue reading →

Dear Friends, Another failure of central planning,Bureaucrats in dire need of canning,But not to worry,They’re in a hurry,Corrupting laws and wrongspeak banning. The faction that wants arbitrary rule,They use our Constitution as a tool,Our rights are yanked,Theirs are sacrosanct,And not … Continue reading →
