Yeah I know, You Tube…terrible.

Anyway, this song is over two decades old and written and performed by a band of lefties. I wonder if cognitive dissonance keeps them is support of the Dems, or if they are truly the free thinkers they fancy themselves.

The song is Los Angeles is Burning by Bad Religion. The song is a condemnation of media sensationalism. They need to add another verse condemning one party rule politics, entirely in bed with the media protecting them.

Somewhere high in the desert, near a curtain of a blue
Saint Ann's skirts are billowing
But down here in the city of limelights
The fans of Santa Ana are withering
And you can't deny the living is easy
If you never look behind the scenery
It's showtime for dry climes
And bedlam is dreaming of rain
When the hills of Los Angeles are burning
Palm trees are candles in the murder wind
So many lives are on the breeze
Even the stars are ill at ease
And Los Angeles is burning
This is not a test
Of the emergency broadcast system
Where Malibu fires and radio towers
Conspire to dance again
And I cannot believe the media Mecca
They're only trying to peddle reality
Catch it on prime time, story at nine
The whole world is going insane
When the hills of Los Angeles are burning
Palm trees are candles in the murder wind
So many lives are on the breeze
Even the stars are ill at ease
And Los Angeles is burning
A placard reads, "The end of days"
Jacaranda boughs are bending in the haze
More a question than a curse
How could hell be any worse?
The flames are starting
The camera's running
So take warning
When the hills of Los Angeles are burning
Palm trees are candles in the murder wind
So many lives are on the breeze
Even the stars are ill at ease
And Los Angeles is burning

I'm being honest when I think the guy could lose IL if he were to run. Maybe NY as well. Swing states would be off the map. His career is done. Presidential ambitions are toast. No one east of the Rockies likes the guy.

Global warming... Wife got caught in a snowstorm in TX and MS a year before covid. We went to Disney in January about 5-6 years ago. 25ºF in the morning in Orlando and they couldn't start a diesel engine. It was frankly embarrassing as someone from a cold place.

I think real men should experience a winter week or even month once in their life. I get 3-4 every year.
