Slightly different.
“your Flagged “Lapel” won’t get you, into heaven
Anymore”.
These days anyone with a flag on their lapel is a fake and lies.
May as well accessorize it with a red damn hat.
And that damn AR 15 pin.
RIP JP.
(Sorry John, no disrespect. At least I do not sing “Happy Enchilada” in “That’s the way that the world goes round”)
His music makes me smile everyday. I literally listen to his music at least one time every day, many times I play one of his songs, and feel better.
Swaggert is saving him (Mike) a seat up close to the big guy.
Like our SOTU, each of them sitting behind Satan, Jimmy crying, Moses Mike Smirking as Saran gleefully reports on the “State of Taking over God’s world”.
