Far More Now Than Ever Our Intuitions Need Turned On

Our intuitions need turned on, and wound clear up to high, as many will - to win your vote, distort the truth - and lie, Preaching what they’ve learned will work to put our minds at ease… claiming they can cure, in time, our country’s foul disease. While promising prosperity, and countless guarantees, most, by far, will tout their skills at doing what’s required... But most, again, by far, who win will never even try to do the very things for which they wound up getting hired! We vote them into office as we trust them to engage in efforts made to rectify the things they swore they would, Typically then discovering that - most, again, by far - quickly claim supporters have, it seems, misunderstood! They play their games of bait-‘n’-switch with vows to change our lives, writing bills whose chance of passing, when the time arrives, Stands at - nonexistent, while they tout their - having tried - always feigning outrage that their legislation died. “Ignorance is bliss”, they say, and if, in fact, we knew all the ins‘n’ outs of what most politicians do, You’d agree with me, I’m sure, that - as I’ve just explained… Washington D. C.’s a swamp that simply must be drained! So, learn to spot the piles of crap when heard, or when they speak, and intuit lies adeptly, by the way they tend to reek, ‘Cause if - like me - you’re goal’s to save what’s left before it’s gone… far more now than ever our INTUITIONS need turned on!
