The Lyrics

As sung by President Obama . . . (FYI, Burning Tree is a famous golf course in Bethesda, Maryland)
Here I stand
In a lost and lonely press conference
Most the time
In a ISIS world I’ve no defense
As you know
I just can't use my pen and phone
I really should go get a clue
What do to
Have no clue, have no clue

Tragedy
When the peace is gone and you can’t golf on
No strategy
When the horror’s seen and you’re on the green
It's hard to bear
With no-one to tell you you're
golfin’ nowhere

Tragedy
When you lose control and we don't have
a strategy
When the horror’s seen and you’re on the green
It's hard to bear
With no-one beside you you're
golfin' nowhere
When the peace is gone and you can't golf on

Night and day
there's a golf date down inside of me
Burning Tree
With a yearning that won't let me be
Damn the polls
and I just can't use my pen and phone
I really should go get a clue
What do to
Have no clue, have no clue

Tragedy
When the peace is gone and you can’t golf on
No strategy
When the horror’s seen and you’re on the green
It's hard to bear
With no-one to tell you you're
golfin’ nowhere

Tragedy
When you lose control and we don't have
a strategy
When the horror’s seen and you’re on the green
It's hard to bear
With no-one beside you you're
golfin' nowhere
When the peace is gone and you can't golf on

Tragedy...

Nazi Hunter - September 02, 2014 - Report this comment
I like this, Don. I wish there were a good strategy for what seems to be an East-West conflict, with world hegemony as the prize, conducted as asymmetric warfare against a medieval, but well-equipped and motivated foe. Bush and his neocon mentors are discredited. Obama is cautious about open-ended military commitment. The public is against reintroduction of troops in Iraq. I think that's closer to the Eisenhower doctrine, which kept us out of the morass of Indochina during his presidency. In the end, our success as a free and prosperous nation, free of racism and rapacious capitalism will win out. The idea of "slaughtering" our enemy, as once proposed here, is not a policy.
Bah. - September 02, 2014 - Report this comment
Every passing day fully vindicates Bush as the last real President this country ever had, and thoroughly discredits all of his slandering libelous enemies as traitors who deserve to be executed. The Democrats and their illegal White House occupant ARE the enemy, and must all be put to death for their endless atrocities and crimes against humanity. "Slaughtering" enemies such as ISIS and the DNC is a perfectly good policy; in fact, it's the only national policy that has ever worked. We should not make nice with Islamofascists, femi-Nazis, anti-Zionists, race-baiters, climate cultists, or any of the other rapacious socialist bigots who are wrecking this country; we should line them all up in front of the firing squad, and send these parasites down to their dark master in Hell, to whom they've already sacrificed tens of millions of American lives in their evil quest for utopia. "The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!"

@Bah: I enjoyed your comment. It's the best parody of lunatic right-wing rhetoric I've ever seen. You have the humor, so all you have to do is give it rhyme and rhythm. I think the OS could be God Bless America, but use your own wit and wisdom in choosing.

"The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!" Who are they? The God of Certainty. The God of Natural Disaster. The God Who is Red in Claw and Tooth. The God of Mega Church Morality. The God of ISIS. No thanks, Bah! I'll take my chances with The Gods of the Marketplace. The uncertain Marketplace of ideas, invention, and evolution.

I have come to Earth to endorse Nazi Hunter's view that the only way to defeat organized barbarism is to create a just and prosperous society for ourselves. It is truly said, "The best revenge is living well."
