Give Us A Speech The Children Can Memorize

        Those who read these posts and know me personally will not be surprised at what I'm about to relate. I made a trip to the local mall tonight to make an exchange for a larger size pair of slippers and as I was walking out I noticed a clearance table for some of those women's bath whatever they are....you squirt it on while taking a shower or something.....doesn't make much sense to me. Anyway I thought that I might pick up a little something for my wife.
         I had done this before with no consequences but tonight as I pushed the top open, put it up to my nose and squeezed a little bit to get a whiff of the fragrance...I squirted this pinkish cream all over my mustache and beard. It was all over the bottle and my hands. I had nothing to clean up with and a thought came to mind that if I go home with my mustache smelling like blossom something-or-other that I might have some explaining to do so I better buy this shower-squirt stuff or whatever it is as evidence. So anyway...back to advising the world...

Inaugural Speech 

         Donald Trump contracted a speechwriter for his inauguration. I wish that he had contacted me first but since some people seem to be backing out on the inauguration it might not be too late. If any one of you knows Stephen K. Bannon or Kellyanne Conway or Kanye West or Miss America please pass this speech on to them and they'll get it Donald.

         On November 8th Americans went to the polls from Hawaii to Maine.....some in Hawaii and Maine probably went to the polls seven or eight times....and after all the votes were counted I became the President-elect of the United States.....your president. I thank you for your trust in me but would ask you to take that trust and place it at the feet of Jesus Christ. Our media here in America say that you picked the worst possible choice for president. For once in their life they were right for I am the worst of the worst and the least of the least. What they will never acknowledge is that you also chose the humblest of the humble. What....you say....Donald Trump....humble? In developing real estate I am anything but humble....you all know this.....but in the august position that I assumed today by taking this oath.....I am humbled to the point of total dependence on the will of God.....humbled in that I have 300 plus million people depending upon me for wisdom.
         Previous to today I only had a few thousand who depended upon me and that dependence was   only in the employment that my companies provided. I now cast all my successes in business at the feet of our Savior. He allowed those past successes to happen. I have accomplished nothing in life that God has not only allowed me to accomplish and gave me the abilities to accomplish. I now need the wisdom that He had in the past given men such as George Washington; and therefore after surveying the character that I have shown up to this day... I can call myself the least of the least... and... as the Apostle Paul wrote in the Good Book....excuse me... I have to read this for I have never memorized any Bible verses...."The saying is trustworthy and deserving of  full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost."       .
         We have a daunting task ahead of us. The man who preceded me in this office has worked up to this very morning to weaken this country that we love, and has also worked to undermine what you called for me to do, but lest....I don't think that I've ever used the word lest before....I trust that Special Dog knows what he's talking about....lest we place all the blame on others and fail to acknowledge our own sins, we must admit that we have brought these disasters upon ourselves. We fell fast asleep in the lap of Delilah. We constructed gods of gold and silver and wood and stone...and I constructed more than anyone. We were given great blessings in the form of freedom and liberty but failed to be vigilant in the defense of them.
       The assaults that will come in the following days, weeks and months on the character that I have shown the world up till now will be accurate. The assaults that will come upon my intentions will be false. The assaults that have been levied in the past and will certainly continue upon the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, our Creator and Benefactor, Jesus Christ.... can be forgiven by Him for they are done in ignorance but to assault the workings of God's Spirit is not ignorance....it is a purposeful and outright rejection of the source of all truth.
       So let us move ahead from this day forward in faith....for as Abraham Lincoln once said in truth...."God's will shall prevail," and let us then seek His mercy upon us in that will. Thank you.
 
       So, do you think that President-elect Trump might possibly use this speech? Maybe I should have put some 'really really bigs' in it? Either way I hope Donald Trump's inaugural speech is short....and serous....and honest. Abraham Lincoln sat on the cold podium for hours before he was to give what has become known as his Gettysburg Address. The speech that preceded him was two hours long. He spoke 272 words and it took only three minutes but his message was so profound that I can still recite most of it from my elementary school days.
