America needs you.....

Back in the mid-1970s, there was a popular song by an up-and-coming rock band named "Chicago." The Vietnam War was over - we'd just yanked all support from the government of South Vietnam causing the fall of its capital Saigon - US president Nixon had just resigned a year or so before that and the country was still reeling from all this and more. Hence, bandmember Robert Lamm wrote the song "Harry Truman" as a tribute to a former President the American people trusted — hard-charging and straight (and often profanely) talking Harry S. Truman.

Fast forward almost 40 years exactly to today. In his 6-year reign, Barack Obama has all but taken our country right down the tubes. He's all but destroyed the U.S. economy and all but neutered the U.S. Constitution and its Bill of Rights. He's circumvented federal law at every opportunity thru his endless run of Executive Orders, appointments of numerous unchecked and unelected Czars whose positions aren't authorized at all in the Constitution and his frequent use of recess appointments for positions that are. The guy acts like royalty jet-setting all around the world on endless vacations, golf games and fundraising junkets. Everytime the guy opens his mouth it's just to tell another lie or two or ten. His hatred for everything American (at least as it was before he came on the scene) is obvious as is his passion for tearing it all down and replacing it his socialist utopian alternatives. And as you know, dear readers, that's just scratching the surface of the damage the Obama Regime has inflicted in six years in power and he's got two more to go.

So, in tribute to about the last president that had any stones or that we could trust completely to lead us honorably, trustworthily and in accordance with the provisions and restrictions on the Chief Executive as spelled out in the U.S. Constitution, I'm updating and modifying the song a bit:

America needs you,
Ronald Reagan.
Mr. Reagan, would you please come back?
Things are really bad -
I know it'd make you mighty mad -
To see what kind of men
Are ruining the land you loved.
America's wondering
Just how we got here
Mr. President, all we get is lies!
We're gettin' wimpier cars, 
but no more rocket ships to the stars
From those who sell us out
To keep themselves securely locked in power.
We'd love to hear you speak your mind
In your very poignant style.
Call it an 'evil empire'
and call down on them the fire.
Though you ate your jelly beans
We always knew what you'd mean
When you spoke of what was going down
With honesty and style

America's calling
Ronald Reagan.
"Gipper," you'd know what to do.
The world is burnin' down and we're losin' lots of ground!
Mr. Reagan! Can't we do something - anything! - to save the land we love
Oh woah woah woah
America's calling
Ronald Reagan.
Mr. President, you'd know what to do
Our world is fallin' down.
Uncle Sam is losin' lots of ground
Oh "Mighty Gipper," what on earth can be done to rescue this land we love
Oh
Mr. President, you'd be heaven sent, if you would come save the land we love
Oh,
President Reagan, This country's almost done. We need someone like you. Someone who's red, white and blue. Someone who will save this land we love
