Good Night and Good Luck

“Good Night and Good Luck,” Brought to us from the stage, Allowed viewers from home To with theater engage. Based on Edward R. Murrow Who, for CBS News, Got to challenge McCarthy, It got rave reviews. Though George Clooney was brilliant, As was the whole cast, What most got me was watching A glimpse of the past… When the bad guy was finally Brought to his knees After hurting so many To varied degrees. It’s a relevant topic In light of the way That democracy is Being threatened today. The unfortunate truth is, At least what I see, That to topple this bad guy, There’s no guarantee. “The times are a’changin” Can’t really apply – That train’s left the station, No matter the why. So I am afraid We can never go back, For the truth will be constantly Under attack.

Talking about truth and George Clooney in the same breath is telling. The man who supported and helped fundraise for a candidate and President who was clearly a mental invalid as far back as 2020. Like all the rest he covered it up and gaslit you until he realised they couldn’t hide it any longer. It’s okay to hate on Trump but the truth is not yours or Clooney’s to argue.
