The A.N.S.W.E.R., my FRiends, is helping FReep RATZ pigs, The A.N.S.W.E.R. is blowin' out the Ditz's!!!
How many times must Lib'rals be duped before they will see RATZ LIE? How many victims must Sosh'lists have before Dem Rapists hear OUR cries? How many deaths will it take 'till World knows that Central Bureaucracies are VILE?!!
The A.N.S.W.E.R., my FRiends, is Fightin' 'Gainst RATZ Spin... The A.N.S.W.E.R. is taking down BIDEN. (gettin' outta the UN?!)
Your name is big brother You say that you're watching me on the tele, Seeing me go nowhere, Your name is big brother, You say that you're tired of me protesting, Children dying everyday, My name is nobody But I can't wait to see your face inside my door
Your name is big brother You say that you got me all in your notebook, Writing it down everyday, Your name is I'll see ya, I'll change if you vote me in as the pres, The President of your soul I live in the ghetto, You just come to visit me 'round election time
I live in the ghetto, Someday I will move on my feet to the other side, My name is secluded, we live in a house the size of a matchbox, Roaches live with us wall to wall,
You've killed all our leaders, I don't even have to do nothin' to you You'll cause your own country to fall

They saw their chance in St. Petersburg, When they saw the Monarchy had been shamed. Killed the Czar and his ministers... As well as any Man who could think! They rode the tanks in Heil Hitler's ranks... When the blitzkrieg raged and all Waco stank! Please believe me...Socialists are to blame! Oh, yeah! Bloody failures, yet, they seem oblivious to shame!
They cheered with glee helpin' Pol Pot succeed... Led by Hanoi Jane, their hands are bloody-stained! They shouted out, "Who killed the Left's Elite?" While slaughterin' all who just wished to breathe free! Let me please clarify myself, these Elites have wealth and "taste"... But their attacks on Liberty...have become a National Disgrace!!

(Lead SOLO)
Lordy, I have loved some ladies, and I still love Jim Beam They both tried to kill me in nineteen seventy-three When that doctor asks me "Son, how'dja get in this condition?" I says "Hey Sawbones, I'm just a-carryin' on the old family tradition."

Former President Barack Obama once wrote that he fantasized about having sexual relations with other men, biographer David Garrow said in an interview published on Wednesday. The former president expressed his fantasies in a letter to a girlfriend at the time, Garrow told Tablet magazine in the interview. That letter has been redacted and is currently in the possession of Emory University, according to Garrow.
The ex-girlfriend provided a copy of the letter, but had redacted one paragraph, Garrow told Tablet, who said she revealed the paragraph was about homosexuality. Sometime, right about when Rising Star came out, Alex indirectly sold the original, sold those letters, and they ended up at Emory, Garrow told Tablet while discussing his 2017 biography of Obama, Rising Star, which touched on Obama reportedly dreaming about homosexuality. So Emory put out a press release saying, Weve gotten these rare letters by Barack Obama. And no mention of this paragraph that was too sensitive. None of the papers mentioned it. Emory didnt mention it.
So I emailed Harvey [Klehr], said, Go to the Emory archives. Hes spent his whole life at Emory, but they wont let him take pictures, Garrow said later in the interview. So Harvey has to sit there with a pencil and copy out the graph where Barack writes to Alex about how he repeatedly fantasizes about making love to men.
Obama married his wife, former first lady Michelle "The Beard" Obama, in 1992.
Obama did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundations request for comment."

"NOW...Devolve Power Outta the Federal Leviathan!!"
"How to Fix the FBI" Jul 12, 2023 COMMENTARY BY Steven G. Bradbury Distinguished Fellow, Executive Vice Presidents Office Steven G. Bradbury is a Distinguished Fellow in the Executive Vice Presidents office at The Heritage Foundation.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has become a serious threat to the liberties of the American people.
Theres a growing sense of urgency, especially among conservatives in Congress, that the FBI must be brought under effective oversight and fundamentally reformed to end its weaponization and to resecure our most basic freedoms. Monday, The Heritage Foundation issued a report that contains extensive suggestions that should be considered in rebuilding the FBI from the ground up.
The FBIs record is nothing less than chilling. Since 9/11, the bureau has expanded its use of broad intelligence-gathering powers, increasingly directing them at political movements that the Left perceives threaten the Washington establishment and directing its surveillance at ordinary Americans exercise of free speech, religious liberties, and other constitutionally protected rights. This dangerous trend led to the partisan abuses of the FBIs Crossfire Hurricane operation to link Donald Trumps 2016 presidential campaign to Russian interference in the election, as confirmed in damning detail in special counsel John Durhams report.
Then-Director James Comeys FBI fabricated the Russian collusion hoax to support the fraudulent misuse of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, conducting a politicized assault on Trumps presidential campaign while giving Hillary Clintons competing campaign protective treatment. And then there were the shocking revelations exposed in the Twitter Files: the suppression of the damning evidence on Hunter Bidens laptop to the benefit of Joe Bidens presidential campaign, the monitoring of social media to target opinions that dissented from the Biden administrations preferred policies on COVID-19 vaccines and other matters, and the ongoing efforts to pressure Big Tech to censor or shadow ban disfavored speech and label it as disinformation.
Then theres the FBIs harassment of Americans for expressing their religious convictions at abortion clinics while violent Antifa rioters get a pass. And theres its treatment of parents as potential terrorists for trying to look after their childrens education by speaking up at school board meetings. And recent reports unsealed by the FISA court reveal that the FBI has repeatedly abused its access to the data collected under FISA Section 702, a powerful foreign intelligence tool. While Section 702 surveillance is targeted only at foreigners located outside the U.S., it does sweep in some communications involving persons in the U.S., and the FBI has improperly dipped into the 702 database more than 278,000 times to gather information on Americans for purposes having nothing to do with national security.
The subjects of these improper FBI searches have included Jan. 6 rioters, Black Lives Matter protesters, visitors to the FBI headquarters, and even donors to congressional campaigns, among others. So, there are certainly compelling grounds for a complete reformation of the FBI. Many in Congress are intent on reconstructing the bureau from the ground up in a new form, one limited to traditional core law enforcement responsibilities and subject to the structural restraints and oversight needed to protect the constitutional rights of Americans.
In a major paper published Monday, The Heritage Foundation weighs in on these issues, explaining the need for fundamental reforms, describing the general elements that would be involved in rebuilding the FBI, and offering options for Congress consideration. (The Daily Signal is the news and commentary outlet of The Heritage Foundation.)
One option is to narrow the bureaus jurisdiction and focus its mission on major law enforcement and national security challenges that are beyond the capacity of local law enforcement and that are not adequately addressed by other federal agencies. Another significant option would be to take away the FBIs intelligence functions and move them elsewhere.
Other proposed elements include:
Prohibiting efforts to suppress free speech, religious liberty, and other constitutional rights by restricting or eliminating the bureaus authority to monitor the activities of Americans without any evident connection to a possible crime.
Enhancing the bureaus support for and technical assistance to state and local law enforcement. The bureaus tools and expertise can be employed to improve the performance and effectiveness of law enforcement at the local level.
Putting the FBI director under the attorney generals chain of command and repealing the directors 10-year term of office. No federal law enforcement bureau should be a power unto itself, able to act on a rogue basis without supervision.
Reviewing the bureaus personnel and personnel practices and including requirements for new, more stringent ethical standards and employee screenings.
Shifting headcount and resources from the Washington headquarters to the field offices.
Creating an FBI inspector general to ensure proper oversight of the bureaus compliance with all applicable requirements, limitations, and protections envisioned by Congress.
Requiring the inspector general to complete a comprehensive review cataloging and exposing all prior abuses.
Requiring the attorney general to purge all information that was improperly collected on Americans by the FBI or other components of the Justice Department.
Whether or not Congress decides to start the bureau over from scratch, there remains the imperative to end the weaponization of the FBI and the misuse of intelligence authorities. Our Heritage report discusses in detail the minimum set of reforms that must be enacted to do that job. At the very least, these should include insulating the FBI from the Section 702 program and making other reforms to FISA necessary to address the abuses seen in Crossfire Hurricane. The Biden administrations push for legislation reauthorizing Section 702, which expires at the end of this calendar year, gives Congress the ideal opportunity to insist on these important FISA reforms.
Its also critical to prohibit the FBI and other federal agencies from working with outside entities to pressure or suppress constitutionally protected speech as disinformation, as well as to prohibit any efforts to target the exercise of religious beliefs and parental rights. One way or another, the time is now for Congress to do whats needed to fix the FBI and end its trampling of Americans most precious civil liberties.

"I spent more than twenty years studying fascism, and all that time I kept asking myself how the democratic countries of the West could have been so blind, and how they could have been so totally unprepared for Hitler's war. After all, he had written Mein Kampf, which pretty much laid it all out. Once in power, he set about arming the country, making menacing sounds to his neighbors, crushing the Jews and separating them out of the population, and preparing to march. It was all so clear. He made no effort to trick us. We simply refused to believe what was right in front of our noses. In the fullness of time, the other Europeans were cannon fodder for Hitler's armies, and the United States did virtually nothing until we were bombed into war by the Japanese.
Then I look at China today, and I ask myself the same questions. China's leaders have made no bones about their hatred for us. They have loudly and publicly announced their intention to develop armies capable of destroying us. They have threatened to bomb Los Angeles if we do anything to annoy them, especially in the defense of democratic Taiwan. They have been busily crushing religious groups in China who dare recognize any authority other than the regime itself, and are separating them out of the population. There is no effort to trick us, none of the legendary inscrutability of the East. It is all so clear.
In the past few days, both the CIA and the FBI have warned about the increasing Chinese espionage in the United States, aimed primarily at obtaining our advanced military technology. One wonders why they bother, since we've been quite willing to sell them most anything they need. Clinton and Gore have deliberately and systematically armed China, and when a tiny handful of congressmen tried to get the details, Clinton and Gore quashed investigations and withheld evidence from investigators.
Meanwhile, the Chinese prepare for war, and warn us of its consequences. The headlines for the past several weeks have reported an endless barrage of threats from Beijing: There will be war with Taiwan if it dares to act as an independent country, and war with us if we dare to defend them, as we have sometimes promised to do. It may be all bluff and bluster, but, I keep thinking, that's what lots of people said about Hitler. The Taiwanese elections are now ten days away, and the Chinese show all the signs of preparing to attack. They have moved an enormous quantity of military materiel down south, just across the straits from Taiwan. They have hordes and swarms of soldiers, bundles of missiles, plenty of aircraft. The intelligence community reports these facts to our leaders, but our leaders are silent. Great journalists like Bill Gertz report these facts to the public, but there is no outcry. We are strong enough to deter China, but we show no sign of wanting to warn them off. On the contrary: we welcome their military leaders, escort them around our bases, sell them our best weapons, and even train their soldiers. Not even the most feckless French leaders would have dreamed of training the Wehrmacht, or of selling advanced technology for the Panzer corps.
Whether now or a few years from now, it is increasingly likely that we will have to fight China, and we have done everything possible to ensure that they will win. In the 1930s, Western businessmen did deals with the Nazis, but there was no leading Western government that armed the Third Reich as a matter of official policy. But we are arming China. Clinton and Gore are Lenin's dream come true: capitalists selling communists the rope with which to hang us.
Some legacy."
"Bill Clinton has sold out this Country's security in a devil's pact to remain in power. At this point, he couldn't stand up to the Chi-Coms even if he were so inclined, because they would leak such compellingly concrete evidence of his treasonous, anti-American activities that even the Clinton Sycophants in the Vast, Left-Wing Media Whore'd would have to sit up and take notice!! Algore is similarly compromised and cannot be trusted to act in the best interests of the United States in matters relating to China. For all you folks who think there is no difference between the DemonRATS and Republicans, please watch this issue carefully over the next eight months...we cannot afford another four-to-eight years of Clinton/Gore policies as they relate to China. And for you BushBackers out there, please make every effort to impress upon Dubyuh the absolute necessity of making ChinaGate an integral issue in the upcoming presidential campaign.

"Big Bad Jawn" (To be sung to the tune of "Big Bad John" by Jimmy Dean)
(Big Jawn...Big Jawn) Ev'ry mornin' on the Hill you can see him arrive A grizzled, white-haired man, about seventy-five Kinda slump'd at the shoulders and feeble at the hip But all them RINOs knew ya didn't give no lip to Big Jawn. (Big Jawn...Big Jawn) Big Bad Jawn (Big Jawn)
Everybody knows where Jawn calls home A big, marble palace called the Capitol Dome He went from Committee Chair to the RINO head And if you thought to ever cross him, youd end up dead - Big Jawn!!
Some say he got rich on Liz Taylor's cash And landed in the Senate after Obenshain's plane crash With 50 per cent against his DemonRAT foe Was all he needed to grab his power-hungry hold - that Jawn. (Big Jawn, Big Jawn) Big Bad Jawn (Big Jawn)
Then came the day; it was "Farris versus Beyer" Mike needed help to douse the LeftWing's lyin'... Christians were prayin' and hearts beat fast Still, the RightWing smelled Victory at last-'cept Jawn.
Through the haze and the smoke of that election-year hell Came Jawn's Deal with the Devil that Conservatives knew well... RINO Jawn trashed his brethren and made the RightWing groan, And Radical Mike stood all alone thanks to Big Jawn. (Big Jawn, Big Jawn) Big Bad Jawn (Big Jawn)
And in 94 it was Ollie North against Robb Then Big Jawn decree'd, "Hey, Chuckies my BackRubBud!" And Medyuh Whored scrambled from Left's would-be grave To do their duty, ChuckiesCheeks to save...fer Big Jawn.
With lies and Lib'rals, Jawn tore Ollie down And ran a third candidate that Big Jawn found As the dust finally settled from that awful fight Jawn was the TV hero that election night - Big Jawn. (Big Jawn, Big Jawn) Big Bad Jawn (Big Jawn)
The VA Right barely recovered from that cowardly s*** The GOP wants to build a statue in honor of it And in Two Thousand and Two theres one plan And thats to insure no one run against this awful man Big Jawn. (Big Jawn, Big Jawn) Big Bad Jawn (Big Jawn)
FADE (Big Jawn, Big Jawn) Big Bad Jawn (Big Jawn)
Entirely conceived and written by my good FRiend, Sultan88!!!
RETIRE THE RINO, Gentleman Jawn Wahnah!!
