Richard Nixon was quite slick
 Most just called him tricky dick
  But it was in Watergate
 that he did participate
 Ford pardoned him very quick

May Versus Trump

Richard Nixon could not tell the truth
George Washington could not tell a lie
Donald Trump can not tell the difference
He just wants to torture a spy!

Richard M. Nixon
                                                      Needed some fixin'.
                                                     His presidency failed,
                                            When Watergate was unveiled.

Richard Nixon was the president’s name
It was Watergate that brought him shame
They wanted to impeach him, the F.B.I.
But he resigned before they could try.

Archie Bunker's Rants

Yesterday, we sat and watched
A sitcom on TV
From early in the 70’s,
But what was strange to me

Was hearing Archie Bunker’s rants
About the U.S.A.
And things that he was saying
Echoed words I hear today.

He argued with his son-in-law
About the government,
Defending Richard Nixon
To his daughter’s discontent.

That show reflects some current themes
But somehow in the past,
It made us laugh; those same thoughts
Uttered now leave us aghast.
