Some grow big bellies
in front of the tele
idle and fuming
small minds never see big pictures

Now I do confess
bombing women and children
is not Biden's best moment, a failed test
nor all democracies of the west

Anyone is better than
an orange criminal with no morality
he has bankrupted himself, a plenty
Id not give him the keys, the pantry raided empty

As far as the Union, I must confess
before Biden, my net worth was a palsy seventy eight million
now is one hundred twenty four million and counting
a dilemma for sure, at what cost, I must address 

I'd give it all away, if we stopped the bombs, the duress

The truth.? Its somewhere..Quite elusive yet we Need intrusive, war what use.?? Well some do Think it is?? I digress to Canada and the same Two party fiasco..Polievere polished preformer.' Yet still wishes to support war.? And speaks of Pandemics.? why the similtude? I Suggest people seek a radically different path Get some successful builders merchant owners to run things? In the interests of respect I'll be blunt Arthur.. As you have with me in the past! If Gaza is not bidens best moment?

That leaves the bunker epoch as his best?? Then trump he got 180 mil from the nazi collaborator scoros in the past..So what can be understood about all That.? It needs ordinary people To get political thats the only way I see to effect things for better.'

Arthur, the way you approach this is with such diplomacy and tact. That is something special indeed! As much as we aren't thrilled electing a cadaver for our leader....I am with you. The orange monkey would be a disaster. I think JB is probably trying to do the right thing, but that isn't particularly easy. I certainly disagree with him on how to obtain peace in this world. Hard to fathom it all, but I think and hope we would all sacrifice more for peace.

Hello Arthur, "State of the Union, 2024" really brings the party to politics; who knew big bellies and net worths could share the stage with bombs and moral bankruptcy? Maybe we should swap the tele for a fortune cookie next time, at least the advice might be less explosive! Your knack for blending finance with finesse had me checking my own wallet and moral compass. Best wishes, Don

Very interesting poem on the SOTU. It's interesting too, seeing talk about Senile Vs Orange, like Coke Vs Pepsi, etc. I still think the central bankers(and others) hide behind those well-paid actors and get a good laugh while we quibble over the versus game. Hopefully people will see who really pulls the strings and give them a run for their monopoly money some day. Especially before sending our sons to fight 'the bad guys'.
