Geoffrey Brewer Poet Rhyme

Political Argument

POLITICAL ARGUMENT?

Why seek the facts to prove and advocate it
When we can just declare, asseverate it

When all the press republish our assertions
That many take as dogma like Cistercians

If media take this meme and gives it voice
Reality is fixed, forget free choice

Suzanne Delaney May 26, 2019 at 6:03 AM When we have the free press become political we have lost freedom. Strange that the one network that is telling the truth is attacked by the rest. Too bad Murdock’s son’s have taken over. I stopped watching when they hired Donna Brazile. What a kick in the face.

Arthur Vaso May 13, 2019 at 12:58 AM You have explained FOX news so well, bravo Geoffrey Brewer May 13, 2019 at 3:49 AM Or CNN, MSNBC, ABC, New York Times, Washington Post, and most of the Western media?

P.S. Awtry February 20, 2019 at 9:04 AM Thank you for your voice of wisdom on a subject crowded with juvenile antics... why wasn't there a class on how to discern propaganda? O never mind... *ASSeverate is a great word! Geoffrey Brewer February 20, 2019 at 11:29 AM Thank you, PS. I fear we are minority voices in the world of Poetry Soup. An ant-Trump rant would get more support.
