Obama jumped the shark again-
Same gender marriage and more
His camarilla of secret advisers
Has made this mistake before
The war on this, the war on that

Of gas makes everyone’s blood boil
Just let the idiots keep it up
Like Nixon’s and Carter’s bunch-
They only make it more likely
That November is a knockout punch
The parody of the Time cover is one of THE funniest I have ever seen...
Thanks for the earworm-that is one of my favorite C&W songs to dance to.
Well done!
