Starise Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Well since we are not supposed to get political on the threads I won't go into details. All I'll say is they all lie and the alternative this time doesn't look much better to me nuf said. I never vote for anyone based on the person. I vote based mainly on the POLICY. Not everyone is on the vote Trump away side. In fact he has a good chance of making it again.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starise Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 The only psychopathic buffons are the cry babies that can't give a fair election a rest and still haven't gotten over it. Some people love to hate...yes that's you. And they try to make it funny. It isn't funny to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record, I also vote for individuals, not really based on the person, because I really don't know any politicians personally; I just know the persona of the characters they play based on how they present themselves to their various publics. 20 minutes ago, Starise said: The only psychopathic buffons are the cry babies that can't give a fair election a rest and still haven't gotten over it.

The song is a parody--in essence social commentary on a caricature . . . Quadruple UH OH!!!! After the last post, I'd better just post this before the thread either gets really nasty or closed.

Starise Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 What ever...........I already wasted my time listening to it. No more. Someone else can comment Music should be fun and positive. That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it If you think bashing another human being no matter how much you disagree with them is fun, I'm not into that. I never will be.

Ray Stevens with a message... t Actually there is a very interesting documentary on how the royalties on Lion were stolen. Kind of like Richard Berry giving away ownership of Louie Louie; well he did get $750 - that was a "steal". I'll post a link if I can find it.

I am not sure if your comment was a response to my post, but I agree--I hold politicians and media personalities (among others) who "bash" others for the sake of sensational ratings, self-promotion, political "points," ego aggrandizement, personal profit, etc. in very low esteem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy j Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I love parodies. Politicians and presidents certainly have been subjects of parodies for as long as I can remember. The first one I can remember as a wee bit of a kid was the teasing about Camelot and President Kennedy. I guess, if you are going to be a public personality, a thick skin should be a requirement. However, I must add that hateful rhetoric and intentional misdirection must be avoided. BTW (for what it's worth) I have 3 primary standards for judging those for whom I vote: 1) Character, 2) Policies, and 3) previous actions.

David Sprouse Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) I loved the parodies of bill clinton, they were pretty harmless and really funny. Edited April 24, 2020 by David Sprouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That directly relates to how and why they set policy. By previous actions I assume you also mean voting record, which is essentially a history of their policies. We'd better quit while we're ahead because when the conversations turn political the censors begin their censoring!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
