THIS IS OUR COUNTRY

What do we call the news?
That would be: papers, TV, and radio
There doesn’t seem to be anything new
It is already old; prologue
 
We receive slants on the truth
Distortions are common as are outright lies
Anything to make the opposition look bad
Most of this media is in lock-step
 
If one of their own is off base
There is the universal cover-up
A real quid-pro-quo is totally ignored
A phony one searched for and exploited
 
What isn’t being said is remarkable
Where is the mention of the swamp?
Full of creatures from both sides
It is they against the deplorable
 
Many think Democrat versus Republican
Maybe the titles are not up to date
Shouldn’t it be liberal versus conservative?
Why not?  This is our country
 
Why must I mark my ballot Republican or Democrat?
I wish to mark it Deplorable
Shouldn’t that be a reasonable option?
After all, that is what I proudly claim I am
 
Where is the news as it used to be?
Journalism which would not stop until
The whole and true story was told
Those days are gone forever
 
The media carries the water for the left
They endorse indoctrination of school children
They believe in murder by abortion and multiple gender beings
They provide the cool-aid as though this were their country
 
Be at peace, my friends
The Light shall overcome all darkness
