There is nonsense everywhere
There is nonsense in the air
There is nonsense on TV
There is nonsense on radio
There is nonsense in print
There is nonsense on the ‘net
There is nonsense everywhere.

There is nonsense on FOX, of course
There is nonsense on Sunday mornings
There is nonsense in Washington, DC
There is nonsense for all to see
There is nonsense that hurts you and me
Who is responsible for the nonsense?
The GOP

There is nonsense in the media
There is nonsense all around
There is nonsense on the ground
There is nonsense here
There is nonsense there
There is nonsense everywhere
There is nonsense 24/7
There is nonsense while we sleep
There is nonsense while we wake
There is nonsense when we’re born
There is nonsense when we die
And every moment in between.

The media shirk their duty
Mistaking equal time for balance
If nonsense is given equal time
With facts and truth
Who will determine
Where the border lies
Between fact and fantasy?

Issa is a Republican
His reputation white as snow
And everything that Darrell says
The media swallow whole.

The Obama administration
Is Darrell Issa‘s target
Investigation after investigation
Hearings and news conferences
Are his preferred M. O.

Truth lies dead upon the floor
The media do not care
They do not keep score of that
All that really matters are ratings.

Controversy draws larger audiences
Suckers  born every minute
Facts don’t matter, opinion rules the day
Issa is a draw, a ratings plus
That is all that matters
In a democracy in decline.

Neither rain, nor snow
Nor gloom of night
Will stay these carriers
From the swift completion
Of their rounds.
Only the US Congress
Has the power to destroy
USPS with their power
Of the purse.
The power to tax
Is the power to destroy.
Congress wants to destroy unions.
USPS bears the union label.
USPS beware Congress
Bearing gifts that destroy.

AR-15

Fear sells
Truth tells
GOP lies
No surprise
NRA says, “Jump”
Congress, “How high?”
FOX lies
Democracy dies
Smoke clears
Victims scream
Survivor tears
AR-15s trump
Will of people
Filibusters must go
Replace Harry Reid
Until then
Guns triumph again.
