Please Stop With The Insincere Sucking Up: I'm Not Ready To Make Nice

[David Zephyr]

Here's to the Dixie Chicks! They say it all for me as the insincere suck-up begins now to my candidate Obama; the false praise that is more insulting than the smear itself.


Not Ready To Make Nice


Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting

I’m through with doubt
There’s nothing left for me to figure out
I’ve paid a price
And I’ll keep paying

I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

I know you said
Can’t you just get over it
It turned my whole world around
And I kind of like it

I made my bed and I sleep like a baby
With no regrets and I don’t mind sayin’
It’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
And how in the world can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they’d write me a letter
Sayin’ that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over

I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting

1. Who is it among us whose sucking up you find transgressive?

[SoFlaJet]

2. must mean

how the Clintons have declared a "truce" with the Obama campaign but have continued to play slimy politics. Karl Rove would be proud

[saltpoint]

6. Oh. Nevermind.

[thunder rising]

3. Who is sucking up? (I only saw the Obama logon when this reply opened)

However, take Barack's advise, this really is about inclusion. Play fair, play hard, but this election is not decided yet.

4. I bought that album when it came out.

That's a powerful song.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

5. AMEN. Tell that to Obama and the Reaganites.

7. Quel surprise!
