Barack Obama...speech ignores impact of Super-stores! Bull sh** prevails!



Wal-Mart retail fortress!



Can you get these togas @ Wal-Mart?





During the course of a speech yesterday - on the subject of the role of small independent businesses in Anywhere USA - the President uttered up a comment that caused me to sit bolt upright in my comfy armchair shaking my head in disbelief.

As usual, Barack Obama's well-crafted ramblings were succinct and to-the-point - at times, even eloquent - but when it got right down to the nitty-gritty his strident notions were not always based on truth (or in reality, for  that matter).

For example, at one juncture, the President asserted that "small businesses" were the anchors that held down Main Streets around the country.

What a load of Bullsh**!

Is Mr. Obama totally clueless to one stinging reality?

Shortly after super-store giants like Wal-Mart bull-doze their way into towns around middle America, most Mom & Pop shops go belly-up!

Subsequently, the American dream turns into a greed-inspired nightmare.

Barack, it's time you woke up, and smelled the coffee!

Main Street...lyric for original rock tune!


Main Street


Every street is Main street in a certain part of town
You've got to pay the rent and you like to play around

Main Street
Main Street

Every street is Main street when you're a star
Every street is Main street when you've not gone that far

Another weekend
Another show
Another night
To the Theatre you must go

You're a masquerade clown
And a puppy dog frown
Performing in a world
That's not too big around

Main Street
Main Street

Main Street, Baby!
