Lawrence S. Pertillar - It Will Take Decades

Yes,
He did preach on matters of quality of life,
And family values.
To persuade those to listen...
And elect him.
Or whatever that was that got him there!

However,
I must come to his defense.
If he had mentioned that he was a thief,
A liar and incompetent...
Would we not now have a new leader,
To bring us all to our senses?
Even one who dares to expose his intelligence.

'But it will take decades to build a new ship.
And restore our confidence! '

And?
Look at the bright side.
By that time...
Will we not all be familiar with reality?
And being in better mental and physical shape...
Does have its benefits.

Plus...
We will all be far more disciplined as well.
And all of us will acquire a deeper appreciation,
For DisneyWorld by then too.
So 'all' is not lost!
Although it does appear as if your cup is half empty!

Lawrence S. Pertillar
