Here comes the News
To interrupt my lovely cup of tea
To set my teeth on edge
To set me wondering why
The politicians thrive
And stay alive
When all they do
Besides perfecting stealing, cheating, telling lies
Is make us wish
That they would die
And let us digest
The rest
Of our breakfast

A fine bite of a write, Lorna!
So much truth said...
Love that Dogbert!
Time for some buttered
Irish soda bread...
without the agita!
~Laura~
Thanks for reminding what day it is!!! Almost forgot about St. Paddy.........
Have a good day, my friend!🍀
Thanks LORNA ~ I love Dogbert too ~ Astute & to the point. Problem is we must have POLITICS ~ and that spawns Politicians and the two are as bad as each other. HILLARY or DONALD was a difficult decision ! I'm Left Wing (Socialist) so I would have voted for Hillary ! Better a DEVIL you know than a TWEETER ! Try not to get on the wrong side of PUTIN ~ the UK has ! Every Blessing & HUGS ~ BRIAN @@@
Hmmmm.....let's see - the choices..... a seasoned politician, very smart (albeit sometimes irritating) and a dunce who is basically a brown shirt dressed in a white shirt................
I agree impeach all of them, they all suck! great sentiment ww
Sadly most only achieve office because of their background - in the Uk because of their upper class status and - or so it appears to me- in the US because of the size of their purse, And they call it democracy.
Love this!!
Thank you!
As I have said so many times before
"How do you know when a politician is lying?"
"Their lips move!"
Good strong write.
Ha ha! Well whatever it is they are doing, it is obviously good for their health because they never die..............
lol ! great poem , lorna ! don't let anything ruin your lovely cup of tea, those politicians don't deserve our time and attention , don't let anything stress you , especially not them , just drink your tea and enjoy it . x
I am weaning myself off the news - take it in short bursts only!
yes. i never watch the news, its always negative, i do not even listen to the radio .. wheres any positive news .. its all filled with negative events and bad things happening , who wants to listen to that , i don't . we all know bad things happen in this world, we all know but do we have to always listen to the news. i'm not so sure that listening to the news , helps any of us.. why bombard ourselves with news of more bad events or more stupid/ dumb people, when we could just DRINK TEA x
Well we do have to pay SOME attention or people like Donald Trump could sail on forever without any opposition....... ghastly thought.......... but I never think about him when I'm drinking my tea~!
oh , of course , lorna ! i just mean , that in general , the news is too negative and sometimes it simply doesn't do us any good to listen to it. but i see what you mean . i don't know much about politics or politicians but i do know that some simply have no clue what they are even doing !
Lucky lucky you!!!!! They're killing us.... that's what!
