America The Unbeautiful

While income inequality is allowed to persist,
Political firebrands continue to enlist,
Those who feel persecuted by government forces,
Right wing reactionaries align with media sources.

Like Tea Party conservatives aired on Fox News,
Whose socialist harangue effectively subdues,
Their propaganda is simple, hateful and crude,
They remain indifferent of being ignorant or rude.

The Tea Party portrayed Obama as a monkey,
Yet conveniently you dismiss them as some KKK flunky
They scream:
Income Redistribution!
Go Buy Your Own!
Entitlement Nation!
Nigger Go Home!

It's Right wing agitators exploiting downtrodden targets,
Yet no decent white leadership speaks up about it.
Republicans are excused in blaming minorities for their hardship,
It's history conjuring up, King's lowly white moderate.

The usual story of  American recession,
Poverty, oppression; wealthy manipulation; acting on aggression.
Disparities in wealth see the one percent flourish,
While the other ninety nine, are disaffected and malnourished.

The American Dream has become its worst nightmare,
Capitalism, not terrorism, is the democratic slayer.
Robert Reich said,  middle class investment creates social prosperity,
Yet Republican oligarchs play down the disparity.

Zealotry and wealthy conservatism ruined America,
Congress was bought off by Super Pac hysteria.
The presidency is in the wealthy hip pocket,
 Only drastic measures, by the people can stop it!
