Unlike Father, Just Like Son!A Poem by Michael StevensThis apple fell about three yards over!Glad to hear insanity and stupidity don't run in your family, Junior! If only we could return to common sense, and the way
we were, but that ship has sailed, the patient is on life
support. Under Junior, insanity and stupidity were our chief
exports. Hickory Dick and Unfunny Rummy were whispering in your
ear, and they were selling paranoia and a whole lot of
fear. Even Papa thinks there was nothing very funny about
those two clowns. He thinks you couldn't see they were letting you down, a not-so-subtle hint that he would have gone another
way, not thrown our weight around--can anyone say diplomacy? By your continued listening to those two, you couldn't pull up before the plane plowed into the absolute mess the country finds itself in now. We've got to return to what we were, somehow.
