20/20 Gonzo 50: Several Elegant Evenings

  

Grateful the Democratic Party was busted by Eisenhower in the 50s and Civil Rights legislation became the law of the land.  Those Democrats were stubborn in their convictions, unsurprisingly ignorant, and without soul.  Similar to the Democrats a century prior, fighting Lincoln and the Republicans to break the Union and create their Confederate nirvana.  What the modern day Democrats see in Communism, I do not know, but it continues a pattern of taking indefensible and dumb positions.  Although the modern Democrats have lost most intellectual credibility, it's hard to believe they had any left to lose.  

In 1878, Senator Aaron A. Sargent. (R-CA) initiated a proposal that eventually gave American women of age the right to vote.  However, it took over 40 years to overcome the Democrat's feisty opposition when they gave up their filibuster and the 19th Amendment, the Susan B. Anthony Amendment, was finally ratified in 1920.  Then a decade of roaring, followed by a decade of depressing, followed by Rosie The Riveter literally building our World War II war machine.  A war machine that helped eliminate the most barbaric evil of the day, saving all of Europe and Asia from certain doom.  But unfortunately, doom descended anyways, as it will, called communism, it's really about cash money, seizure of wealth, cash money, greed, and cash money.

The classless of all classless has gathered together for several elegant evenings of pre-taped telethon segments.  Wandering around in empty buildings, pointing at nothing, insulting our country, it's leaders, most of it's people, and our intelligence.  We see your slather, we know things, we can detect your smell through the screens, despite the editing, that same sour, dour, cynical froth common among the classless, tasteless, and humorless.  Go ahead, pile on, cancel Thanksgiving for sure, Christmas is for fools, give us three extra paid Labor Days instead, screw Eisenhower, Suzi B was overrated.  At least Jerry Lewis made us laugh and money was raised to fight a specific health hazard, his telethons were so much better.

Sources Say 5: The Fool's Century

  On the inside it's uglier than most can imagine.  Scandal, cover ups, hook ups, and pick-me-ups.  No telling what kinda narcotics float around, pill to pill, shot to shot, dose to dose, a pharmaceutical disaster.  Like Elvis without any music or Chuck Berry without any moves or Bruce Lee without any kicks or Speedy Gonzales without any speed.  Just dizzy, slurring pigment obsessed drunks, sources say. What does CBS stand for anyway?  Doesn't matter now, they've become irrelevant, a bleak reminder of last century.  The fool's century.  Duped and looped.  Now we know. We started in around the late 40's, picking fights, manipulation, sinister and crude.  Stealthy.  Spies with eyes in the skies.  Peace was never kept, it was invaded.  America was a TV show on CBS.

Sources Say 2: They Miss The Ink

  Related to manipulation abuse, but with a capitalistic twist.  They are paid by the manipulators and the victims of manipulation.  It's a winning business model until the walls come crumbling down on the street, until the curtains pull back.  You thought Oz was bad, at least they got you back to Kansas.  These journal jerks got nothing. Even a few of my sources have moved on, the wreck has left the place dim and disgruntled.  Evidently, what's-her-name stormed out of a staff meeting in tears, mumbling something about pills and booze and karaoke night.  Guess it didn't go well.  Everyone laughed at her when she left the room, seems a real toxic work environment.  They miss the ink. But that won't stop them from cheering on China, and for good reasons.  Ask the finance department.  Money's money, honey, and they got the name, the bull statue, the cufflinks.  They got smear jobs, insinuations, and an editorial board.  Somew...
