Quote of the Day : On Americans

"it is impossible for any mind of common honesty not to be revolted by the contradictions in their principles and practice."

Francis Trollope, Domestic Manners of the Americans Vol. II (London: Whittaker, Treacher & co, 1832) 12.

When the credit breaks

If they keep on fightin', credit's goin' to break,
If they keep on fightin', credit's goin' to break,
When the credit breaks the last jobs will go away

Mean politicians taught me to weep and moan,
Mean politicians taught me to weep and moan,
Got what it takes to kick a workin' man from his home,
Oh, well, oh, well, oh, well.

Don't they make you feel mad
When you're tryin' to find your way home,
You don't know which way they go?
If you're goin' to DC
There's no good work they do,
If you don't know about Mexico.

Resolve won't help you, tryin' won't do you no good,
Now, workin' won't help you once the jobs are gone for good,
When the credit breaks, you and mama got to move.

All last month they screwed up the credit and moaned,
All last month they screwed up the credit and moaned,
Thinkin' about my baby and my foreclosed home.
Going, going to Mexico... Going to China... Sorry but I can't take you...
Ratein's down... credit down now... going down....

Hand me your stella and fly

You cheated yourself,
Like you knew you would
You knew you were in trouble
Now you're gone for good

Beware of loonies!

Home of the big fluffy tax cut

There certainly were big tax cuts.

The super rich got very big tax cuts.

It was a big tax cut mania.

It's very rich people tax cut mania.

but

Where's the jobs‽
I don't see any jobs‽

If you can look at a crime where everything points to one answer and not see it you're a dumbaß

Dominic One

One is the onlyiest number that at first you'll do
Two, you'll be terrible badder than one
It's the baddest number after number one

Know is the gladdest experience as each day is new
Your life, it's the experience that you daily do
But one is the onlyiest number at the start you do
One is the onlyiest number, worse is two

It'll be so good someday when she comes to stay
Then you can spend some time making rhymes of yesterday

One is the onlyiest, number one is first time the number
One is the only first number that you'll ever do

One is the onlyiest, number one is first time the number
One is the only first number that you'll ever do

It'll be so good someday when she comes to stay

(Number) One is the oneliest
(Number) One is the oneliest
(Number) One is the only first number that you'll ever do

(Number) One is the oneliest
(Number) One is the oneliest
(Number) One is the only first number that you'll ever do
