people down on mainstreet have no faith at all
in pelosi, frank, and reid who should be thrown out of the hall

700 billion – a few bucks dedicated to the average Joe
the rest will go right back to the crooks who started this whole show

responsibility and accountability are nonexistent on the hill
anything to get re-elected, let the taxpayer cover the bill

obama tied to every shady and dangerous leftist freak
and mccain not exposing the democrat’s trash is making him look weak

loud mouth biden on the trail while palin has appeal
the media just can’t understand a candidate who’s real

if mccain gets to the white house he’ll have tons of work to do
if it is obama he’ll be spending over 800 billion – paid by me and you

This week, I shook the hand of a man, just a man, and only a man

who was benevolent, admirable, & righteous

This week, I shook the hand of a man, just a man, and only a man

who was articulate, committed, & knowledgeable

This week, I shook the hand of a man, just a man, and only a man

who was open, brilliant & authentic

This week, I shook the hand of a man, just a man, and only a man
who was moral & audacious

This week, I shook the hand of a man, just a man, and only a man.

Yet, I was inspired to believe ~ if it be God’s Will ~ that this

benevolent, admirable, righteous, articulate, committed, knowledgeable, open, brilliant, authentic, moral, audacious
Man, who is just a man, and only a man could be the catalyst for Change.

I live life to the fullest…

I work like a dog…

I help my neighbor…

I love like there is no tomorrow….

I try to be honest….

&

I die.

I am American….

I believe in Faith and God

I believe in Freedom

I believe in People

I believe in this Country.

I believe in our forefathers who fought to get us here…..

I am American….

I have to trust our Government

I have to trust my family

I have to trust Justice

I am American…..

but…..

America is falling…

I am American….

but….

people are selfish and greedy here….

I am American…..

but…

our government is dirty to the core….on both sides….

I am American…..

but…..

everybody wants a FREE ride….

nobody wants to earn it anymore…..

I am American…..

but…..

where are all of the other Americans?

When Katrina hit….

When Ike hit…..

When our leaders have betrayed us…..

When we have sent thousands of our children into a lie…….

I am American…..

but….

who will stand with me to defend her against the enemy within….

against the liars who just want to be seen……

against the leaders who have deceived us….

against the liars that want to screw us again….

I am American…..

but….

I can’t do it alone…..

I need to see common sense come back to us…..

I know there are others who see…..

I am American……

I want America to live……

I want our families to prosper…..

I want truth to be the leader…..

I want a United America not a Divided One…..

I am American……

Are you?

There once was a chap named McCain.
For president he did campaign.
His opponnent Obama
always rode his llama.
Aren’t these candidates insane?

There once was a president named Bush.
Sadam Hosane he did smush.
He started war.
and unlike before,
the economy was soon turned to mush!

Fresh Peanuts…Popcorn…Crackerjacks…

just step right up folks… get the facts.
In the big tent… grandstand seating…
three headliners all competing.
Big cats …each one a sensation…
racing toward the nomination.
Come on inside and watch them fling …
inflated hats into the ring.
And In the spotlight…John McCain…
who’s joining us from his campaign
He’s Sorting out the myth from fact…
behold his wild balancing act.
“Hey Iraq…we’re gonna fight ‘em…
troops will stay…ad infinitum”.
Look on my right and you will see…
the tightrope walker…“Hillary”
See how the snipers burst and flare…
as she goes flying through the air.
With death defying speed and skill…
she leaps into the arms of Bill.
With a past both grand and tragic…
watch Obama weave his magic.
You won’t believe…you’ll stand and cheer
he’ll make the Reverend disappear!
And “Right” before your very eyes…
he’s got the power to hypnotize.
As a side show…for good measure…
Nader’s here…just for your pleasure…
toothless tiger…but still cunning…
once again old Ralph is running.
Now that you’ve seen what they’ve displayed…
come join us for the big parade.
Laugh with the clowns and hear their chants…
see donkeys chase the elephants.
In this year’s race…which type can win…
to plead their case with hype and spin.
Well folks…you got your money’s worth
you’ve seen the greatest show on earth!
