John Adams and here is one I like: Arthur Balfour,:
The power of authority is never more subtle and effective than when it produces a psychological “atmosphere” or “climate” favorable to the life of certain modes of belief, unfavorable, and even fatal, to the life of others. Something Obamanuts should ponder!!!
'Twas the night before the election
And all through the town
Tempers were flaring
Emotions running up and down!
I, in my bathrobe
With the cat in my lap
Had cut off the TV
Tired of all the political crap.
When all of a sudden
There arose such a noise
That I peered out my window
And saw Barack and his boys
They had come for my wallet
They wanted my pay
To give to the others
Who had not worked a day!
He snatched up my money
And quick as a wink
Jumped back on his bandwagon
As I gagged from the stink
He then rallied his henchmen
Who were pulling his cart
I could tell they were out
To tear my country apart!
' On Fannie, on Freddie,
On Biden and Ayers!
On Acorn, On Pelosi'
He screamed at the pairs!
They took off for his cause
And as he flew out of sight
I heard him laugh at the nation
Who wouldn't stand up and fight!
So I leave you to think
On this one final note-
IF YOU DONT WANT SOCIALISM
GET OUT AND VOTE!!!!
