Leftists support terrorists. Just like Obama does.

Lions and Sheep ©2014 by Trevor Patrick

Alexander the Great
was quoted as saying:
that an army of sheep led by a single lion,
even if that lion be scrawny and damned-

is far more dangerous
than an army of lions
commanded by a sheep,
even if it be the flock’s mightiest ram.

‘Cause the herd that most choose
to blindly follow
can just as easily be led astray,

all it takes
is the proper bellwether,
who knows all the right things to say;

who deeply understands
that people don’t want to think for themselves,
nor for the real truth,
do they ever care to seek-

instead, it’s all about
the spoon-fed opinion
and manufactured, pitchfork mob outrage,
that happens to be most trendy this week.

CHORUS:

‘Cause lions don’t lose sleep
over the opinions of sheep:
all those following the herd,
whose slogans they constantly bleat,

and those, who’ll trade their individuality,
for the shallow acceptance they seek
yes, lions don’t lose sleep,
over the opinions of sheep.

Even in the Bible,
In First Peter, five and eight
Satan’s depicted as the roaring lion,
seeking whom he might devour

And also in John eight
and forty-four:
the idea of the thieving, deceiving predator,
who lusts for might and power

Yet the ancient Romans knew the truth
when they said:
it’s better to live a single day as a lion
than a thousand as a sheep.

Even if you’re the herd-ram
for those thousand days,
and all the ewes are in heat.

For a lion will understand
that comfort is slavery,
and freedom is never free-

and only when he casts
his fate to the winds
will he have a chance to be all he can be.

SECOND CHORUS:

‘Cause lions don’t lose sleep
over the opinions of sheep,
who’ll dump their principles in a heartbeat,
when the majority no longer agrees

yet who encourage you to think for yourself
just so long as you don’t think too deep
yes, lions don’t lose sleep
over the opinions of sheep.

And perhaps the harshest truth of all
faced by Comfort’s sons and daughters
when you choose to exist in the conformity of the herd
in the end, all sheep are slaughtered.

I just put all my friends on Facebook on notice. Any anti Semite hate speech will not be tolerated. It didn’t take long for an old hippie friend of my wife to tell me he loved jimmy Carter’s rant. I said bah bye and unfriended him. Will be interesting to see who is anti Semite on my friends list.

The truth shall set you free.

Maybe now he realizes what green parties are really all about.
