I finally begin to realize, It was me who never knew what I was
talking about
Those
wiser and more powerful have gotten us where we are today
I
should trust in their will to lead us ever on, exactly as they have
so far
I
lack their vision and perspective on the bigger world at large
They
have long experience in the simplification of our complex issues
I
need to better appreciate the valuable solutions that they are
bringing to the table
I
was so wrong to brand them as short-sighted and reactionary
Our
great leaders remove the burden of our own interests from our
shoulders
At
last I begin to see how very much they must sacrifice to guide us
forward
For
such a long time I dismissed them as smarmy, self-serving hypocrites
The
wisdom of those noble captains of industry was too subtle for me
But
now I see how they watch over us with our glorious God behind them
For
selfish reasons I could not open up my heart in acceptance of their
policies
Their
patient mercy remained, nonetheless, quietly unperturbed
Slowly
my heart turned towards them, like a small houseplant to good
sunlight
In
my darkness I heard only petty politics and slickly-vapid sales
soundbites
The
jewels of meaning in their pithy pronouncements escaped me
Finally
I am able to stop listening and begin to simply absorb their real
message
I
thought they had no real love for Jesus but merely wished to win our
votes
Now
I know they speak directly to me via a fundamentalist personal savior
I
finally learned to listen to our Lord through the wisdom He reveals
to our leaders
I
always respected scientists and thought the scientific method yielded
progress
Our leaders have unmasked their fuzzy thinking and junk math at
last
Now
I see that global warming is merely a scam and evolution is still
just a theory
Like
a fool I always thought we should design and build things here at
home
Stalwart
corporate captains have exposed the error in such thinking
Outsourcing
saves us money and frees us up for the new and better jobs to come
For
too long I viewed abortion as a fairly unimportant and very personal
issue
evangelical conservatives have raised my beliefs to a higher moral
plane
Abortion
is a linchpin in our struggle for traditional faith-based values
It
took so long to overcome a foolish belief that health care is not a
product
Far-seeing
pundits have eviscerated this nonsense from my mind
We
enjoy the greatest choices and 50M of us can choose any ER that they
wish
Whatever
made me believe that the entire rest of the world might often be
right
Through
faith in God and staying on message, Praise Jesus, now I see
A
trillion dollars is a but small price to pay to give the terrorists
an oil-rich caliphate
Poisoned
by the rhetoric of the liberals, I hugged trees and hated pig farms
Bible
study, Fox and Breitbart have shown me the light
Their
Healthy Forests and Clear Skies Initiative steer us toward a better
future
I
sinned in thinking tax cuts for corporations and the rich were wrong
Their
extra money trickling down into the Meth labs lights the proper path
Twangy
macho posturing is enough to earn the squalid faith of the
proudly-ignorant
I
was mistaken to believe that sucking up is not a required
professional skill
Being
kicked down by fawners, however, did not advance my career
Unctuous
backbiters succeed famously in our business and political arenas
I
was tricked by that new age Satan into a belief that all life forms
are equal
The
teaching of fundamentalist scholars has opened my eyes at last
Man
alone was formed in God’s image and animals were put here simply
for our use
Misled
by the Devil I drove small cars and bought castoffs at the thrift
stores
Through
the miracle of advertising Televangelism I have been reborn
Now
I toss my frozen chicken tenders into the back seat of my giant empty
pickup truck
It
was with a false righteousness that I recycled the things I had used
at home
I have learned that my small role is best played out down at our
shopping malls
Doing
more with less is merely a personal virtue, certainly of dubious
value
I
remember fretting needlessly over mercury and lead levels in our
children
Thank
heaven now I see the light of relaxed emission standards & Clean
Coal
I
just keep the power windows up and leave the air-conditioner running
full time at home
For
too long during that unhappy time I felt that massive deficits were
wrong
Now
the miracle of supply-side economics has been revealed to me
Decreased
taxes and massive military spending will build a brighter future for
us lowlifes
Sinner
that I was, I believed the herb to be less harmful than alcohol or
cigarettes
Harsh
sentencing penned up with hardened criminals finally taught me better
Raising
money through regulation would lead us all to a hard drug perdition
At
last my eyes are opened to the deceitful siren song of that vast
liberal media conspiracy
Freed
at last from the ranks of those yellow, zombie one-worlders
Praise
be to our personal savior speaking to us through our great corporate
theocracy
