SUNDAY MORNING BLUES




In a Sunday kind of mood today....weekend winding down and the news just keeps looking worse, the O administration is so out of control and anti-American that I can't believe my ears and eyes. As I watched the news shows this morning I just kept thinking about the people falling through the cracks while all levels of government pols just keep meddling and screwing things up for all of us. When Obama talks about "redistribution," "spreading the wealth around," " social justice," etc., he is talking about government theft and government power over individuals' lives. Plain and simple. He's wrong. It's wrong. There is no "social justice" in the "redistribution of wealth." There is no justice in "monetizing of debt" by the Fed. There is no "right" to nationalized health care. There is no "global warming" catastrophe that requires stealing from the American people to enrich GE and others. There is no security in reneging on promises to allies and making deals with Russia. The lies just never stop coming from this guy.

I went to youtube looking for Bessie Smith's song, "Ain't Nobody's Business If I Do." But then I found this song by Jimmy Witherspoon which just hit me right between the eyes. It says it all...

Can you enjoy the blues??? Small comfort. I don't know......


Well, money's gettin' cheaper
Prices gettin' steeper
Found myself a woman
But I just couldn't keep her

Times gettin' tougher than tough
Things gettin' rougher than rough
I make a lot of money
I just keep spendin' the stuff

Well, pork chops on the market
Ask the butcher for a pound
Couldn't buy a pork chop
When I laid my money down

Times gettin' tougher than tough
Things gettin' rougher than rough
I make a lot of money
Just keep spendin' the stuff

Well, politicians are tellin' folks
To cut out on their meat
Why don't they cut the price
And let the people eat?

Times gettin' tougher than tough
Things gettin' rougher than rough
I make a lot of money
I just keep spendin' the stuff

Well, I can't afford to live
I guess I'll have to try
Undertaker's got a union
And it costs too much to die

Times gettin' tougher than tough
Things gettin' rougher than rough
I make a lot of money
I just keep spendin' the stuff
