Cassi Creek: I’m like
far too many Americans today. I am fed
up with the partisan posturing and obstructionist policies that render our
government unable to fulfill its functions.
I’m furious at the GOP and its associated base and propaganda mill,
composed of ideologues who would rather destroy the nation’s economy than return
to common sense politics that demand compromise on the part of both major
parties.
I’m tired of
right wing talk radio and television, working in concert with religious
fundamentalists and arms merchants to destroy the former middle class and to
eliminate social safety nets.
The opening
verse of Tim Hardin’s song goes well with John King’s op-ed piece on CNN.
A Reason to Believe
by Tim Hardin
“If I listened long enough to you
I'd find a way to believe that it's all true
Knowing that you lied straight faced while I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believe
Someone like you makes it hard to live
Without somebody else
Someone like you makes it easy to give
Never thinking of myself
If I gave you time to change my mind
I'd find a way to leave the past behind
Knowing that you lied straight faced while I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believe
Unlike Hardin, I no
longer find a reason to believe.
Someone like you makes it hard to live
Without somebody else
Someone like you makes it easy to give
Never thinking of myself
If I gave you time to change my mind
I'd find a way to leave the past behind
Knowing that you lied straight faced while I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believe
Still I look to find a reason to believe
Still I look to find a reason to believe”
Someone like you makes it hard to live
Without somebody else
Someone like you makes it easy to give
Never thinking of myself
If I gave you time to change my mind
I'd find a way to leave the past behind
Knowing that you lied straight faced while I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believe
Still I look to find a reason to believe
Still I look to find a reason to believe”
