The Rotten Fruit Chorus starts singing harmoniously,
“Bye-bye, American pie.”
Drove the jet to the ditch,
But the money tank was dry.
Upgrade to the federal jumbo jet,
To use the unlimited money sources from 49,
There is more honey on global jumbo jet from 419.
Then good old beat-up boys were drinking whiskey and rye,
Then good young naive boys were dying in the A-list wasteland,
And Miss/Mr. American Pie singing, “this’ll be the day that I lie.
“this’ll be the day that I lie.”

“Bye-bye, American pie.”
Drove the jet to the ditch,
But the money tank was dry.
Upgrade to the federal jumbo jet,
To use the unlimited money sources from 49,
There is more honey on global jumbo jet from 419.
Then good old beat-up boys were drinking whiskey and rye,
Then good young naive boys were dying in the A-list wasteland,
This’ll be the day that good farmers all die.
This’ll be the day that they die.”

Please also remember that for much of America’s history, the “American Dream” didn’t encompass all Americans. When you talk about American growth and economic might, the conversation must start with slavery. SLAVERY! There, I said it. Does China have a large class of slaves and endentured servants that can be counted on to tend to the garden and do the heavy lifting for a century or two? Perhaps America might not be the genteel lovely she is today had Monseurs Hamilton, Washington, etc not had slaves to do their fieldwork while they entertained lofty thoughts.

Speaking of our “founding fathers”, lets end this with a plea to not forget George Mason, who refused to affix his signature to a document (guess which one) that didn’t ensure equal treatment for all men.

Goddamn if nothing makes me madder than the lies men tell when they go about nation building.

Half truths are what they want us to see and believe and in the west a half truth is no truth at all. Every lie needs to be checked and exposed.

Comment on the good sure but many times these good things have a terrible price.
