Moment of Truth

  By Tarzana Joe    ❧❧❧❧ I long for the ages When sages Spoke sooth Today I just hope For one moment of truth   One sentence of honesty’s What I would rather Than pages and pages Of bunkum and blather   Even for rivals Bill Clinton and Newt Facts were just facts And not up for dispute   Now it’s all smoke and all image and show I don’t trust a word No, not even, “Hello.”   Is this where we’ve come to?

The prime issue of the election seemed to be about the economy, but the majority of Americans favored Romney to handle the economy. Why did republicans loose in 2012 then? It is definitely not because people favored Obama’s economic policies. When talking about the democrat’s strategy to handle the economy and the...
