The Times They Are A-Changin

 

I thought this should have been a theme song for the TEA Party back fifteen years ago.  the lyrics fit, the sentiment fits, the irony of who it is that requires throwing out now fits. I suggested it often, but no one but me seemed to like the idea.

I credit this lack of creative thinking with the eventual fall of the Party.

Always disliked Dylan's music, well most of it anyway. I do like his painting though.

His voice is 80 grit sandpaper on the ears. Very good songwriter, though. Maybe if you'd recommended a good cover the Tea Party would have pulled through.

The TEA Party died because the Republican Party did it’s best to destroy it, as Trump later, willingly leaguing with their ostensible opposition to do so. The creative thought that they needed was to realize that they had no Allie’s in politics, and needed to replace everyone and level every existing thing.

They were the last chance to do that through ordinary politics; Trump was the first extraordinary measure. He failed also; more extraordinary measures will come. You will at least not be able to blame them for not being creative.
