Frolicking daughters & gamboling dogs on the white house lawn in shadow of TPP

We have images of frolicking daughters & gamboling dogs on the white house lawn and that's all very nice & v. sweet but her Democratic husband was the shepherd and pushed along the secretive power transfer called the TPP.  Where is even a sprinkle of the hope & change? & where are the results? By their fruits you shall know them. The fruit of Clinton-ism was Nafta and Obama's fruit is the TPP.  So voting Democrat is not that great in the end, is it?

“Brooklyn” takes a jokey lyrical poke at hipster culture but in a fond electro-pop-folk way. NEW YORK CITY – Don't say anything around a songwriter, it’s said; they will take something you say & make it into a song. Just ask Taylor Swifts exes! For local award winning social justice songwriter John Munnelly, he took a voice coming from his TV and made her the narrator of his new song. “I was sitting there on the sofa hearing the voice of a girl with a mandolin or ukulele and I immediately heard what could be the start of her song.” The pop­ electronica ­folk song opens up with the narrator at an open mic pouring out her heart earnestly to the ‘pretty boys and tattooed girls’ Kids are having a tough time finding their place today and gravitating to Brooklyn as a place to live out their hipster longings.  With comedic wit, this song
