Presidential Candidate or When Less Experience is Better

Missed your national and/or local peace rally yesterday-
out celebrating Mozart’s birthday perhaps? Not to worry
they shall return in force and full March 17th. And you
will be doing the Irish Jig instead of mourning the beginning
of the 4th year of occupation in Iraq?
The Irish, they say, are scrappers not killers
and you didn’t know which birthday Mozart was celebrating?
You say 250th I say 251st, “But who is counting,”
Amadeus avers.

C-SPAN queries listeners:
“Anyone but a Clinton or a Bush?”
Who knew foxes howl?
Where is the Christian Crusade taking place today?
Well right here in the good ol’ U S of A!
Guess what and imagine that?!
This time the Crusade
is Christian Right against the Christian Left.

Identification Tool:
Who hawks war and who doves peace?
Who are they, who became like children,
therefore may enter the kingdom of heaven?
(little children scrap, big bullies go for the throat
with deadly gore)
Who wants to stymie you with “End Times”
and who wants everybody to go to heaven?
Who followers their leaders lock-step
and who asks questions?
Hitler knew how to brainwash the masses:
Preaching, Symbols plus Rituals.
The Christian right demonizes opponents
while the Christian left loves opponents
and saves their hate for inhuman actions(.)

Netanyahu and Ahmadinejad

O Israel we understand your reasons “why”
but your “why” does not forgive your actions
Like a mother to a child i tell you
O Israel you have never been, and will never be,
all right or all wrong (nor will Palestine)
yes your culture has been wronged griveous ly
Your wannabe next Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu speaking to a Christian Evangelical
on “God’s Learning Channel” today said that
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, President of Iran
wants to have 250 nuclear bombs in 10 years
but more, much more, Mahmoud, you accuse,
wants to rebuild the Persian Empire.
And Benjamin would be Alexander the Great; wishes
to use the UN to Bring Ahmadinejad to trial for
“Inciting genocide”
It was the Persians who did not kill the Jews;
allowing them to return to Israel
Pardonnnez-moi! “Inciting genocide”??!?
When you put your stick in a hornet’s nest,
kill 650,000 and counting,wasps, and add to that
a Crescent of more wasp nests,
and your stick turns into a nuclear snake,
it is YOU Benjamin Ahmadinejad,
who is “Inciting genocide”!

Questions, Mr. Wannabe next Prime Minister:

1) Why did Israel refuse to sign the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty?
2) Why does Israel keep Mordechai Vanunu in jail when, after all,
we all know Israel has about 250 nuclear weapons?

Two hundred and fifty???
Ben! Oh Ben! it is a looking glass
Are you really ready
to go down that hole?

Judith Miller: Dick Cheney’s Fall Guy

Judy Judy given a pipeline to Cheney/Bush talking points
WMDs et al “evidence” to march US into Iraq war
gets a little time in jail where is she now?
Not to worry, Bryan York aka Fox News,
enters the echo chamber of yellow cakes
and discrediting Joe Wilson.
Who would not ask why the continued
attacking the messenger when Big Bush himself
has allowed he should not have used the forged document.

Why has the media not asked the questions
“who, what, where, when, how”
of the forged documents?

Give us something honest to fear please like
a Vice President Cheney who only yesterday proclaimed,
“Iraq is an enormous success.” or a
Bush proclaimed right to declassify secret government documents,
but only if Libby takes the stand – equating to…
secrets are not secret if they protect Cheney.

Bryan York accuses anti-Bushies of “not believing
anything Osama bin Laden said.” Osama SAID
Palestine/Israel and US troops in Saudi Arabia.

“Anatomy of Deceit” by Mary Wheeler

Admonishings For Brother Bill O’Reilly

Born into Protestant Work Ethics singing
“Nobody gets a free ride
pull yourself by your own boot straps
if you are not working you are lazy

now billy it isn’t the same. back when
even factory workers were proud of their production
the boss was a friend and gave you job security
it still took Unions to raise the wages, in that
True Capitalism is bleeding the turnip till dry
(all is never enough)

but then along grew looking down the nose
at manual labor and forced to paying taxes
on a war we the people do not support
snobs on nob hill demand humble servants
remember billy when
we became of age in the work force
and the talk was more leisure time for the worker?
Shorter hours better pay pride in a job well done

billy you took the money prestige road
i took the question everything way
now listen, If
the worker was paid an honest dollar
i would agree with your Protestant Work Ethics
(even though you are Catholic and i am 3 times x)
What would a true Christian Work Ethic be?
To NOT BE a slave to Mammon (.)

Cheney Washes Hogs

Hogwash? “Hogwash, what does failure
have to do with credibility?”
Cheney responds to CNN Wolf.
“If we pull out ‘they’ will think
we don’t have a stomach for fighting.”
6 times draft dodger Dick is afraid
wants us to very afraid
not to “stay the course”
like a Custer? well not exactly,
Custer, at most, put his own life
on the battlefield, Cheney himself,
“had other things to do”
like getting richer
“The world is safer now because
we went into Iraq” says Cheney.
And we make the world safer
by taking away US civil liberties?
The world will NOT be safer Mr. Dick
until we overcome our deadly addiction
to oil. A start would be getting over believing
our personal car is part of our identity.

Impeach Cheney First!

Bush has charisma as a cowboy
but Dick controls his brain
Where are the exploited and missing children?
Answer: in Iraq.
Dick Brain Cheney still pushing lies
but the dots don’t line up to
Hezbollah is al Qaeda
And what were the penguins doing last night?
George inadvertently protruded his tongue 124 times
while speaking but Cheney and Pelosi
could only purse their lips and lick
the inside of their mouths to keep from choking
How did AIDS, with 21.8 million living victims
(with yearly deaths of 17,000)
take center stage when MALARIA
has 300 million living victims
(with yearly deaths of 1+ million)
Oh right, Americans get AIDS,
not so much malaria.
But ain’t it grand George Cheney wants to give
tax breaks for health insurance even when
40+ millions of Americans don’t have it?
President Eisenhower took us out of Korea
President Ford (pushed by congress) took us out of Vietnam
Come on George you can do it
“Out of Iraq now!”

But yet and still,
George Bush does have a brain
State of the Union 2006 he rightly accused
US of oil addiction and need to get over it
State of the Union 2007 he rightly
acknowledged Global Warming
Will it take to 2008 for Bush’s brain
to reach the same conclusion
as Jimmy Carter did more than 3 decades ago?

Double US “oil reserve”
Who does that profit? Oil investors!
Alternative energy? STOP
calling it “renewable”
even the soil gets tired…sometimes corny

Ol Sol and his merry ol’ soul keeps a’shining
Uncle River keeps on flowin…
“It’s the End of the World,” sings REM
and adds the caveat:
“As we know it!”

State of the Union Bush Eve

Here we are at Bush Eve of State of the Union Message
tomorrow when he will tell us “Big things are possible.”
Big what Mr.? Big jobs that take both parents working
to support their family? Or big like oil prices dropping
and he’s ready to feed our oil addiction?

Or big news on CNN on the Eve of Bush State:

Al-Zawahiri – “If we are killed you will be killed.”
FBI officials said Monday that U.S. forces found documents
at least SIX months ago indicating al Qaeda in Iraq has
aspirations to attack on U.S. soil.

fEAR Fear, pour on oil, pour on oil,
Bush is BurninG and this is not Scotland
What was that you said Mr. President?
“I’ll be a monkey’s uncle!”

Hold the Media Accountable

Our Media Hero Helen Thomas ‘splains
“Our Media went into a coma on 9/11
then Katrina awoke it that
something is terribly wrong
preKatrina the Dems and Reps were afraid
to be called un Patriotic un American
some still are, to some degree
and she ‘splains further
“The Bush line is ‘We are there,
forget the past and move forward’.
Forward from what?
Forward from our Invasion of Iraq?”

“Iraqis won’t do what we want them to do,
they are not the Greatfull Dead”

Worldly and personally:
Why do we fight before we become friends? The fear of
“What level of violence are you willing to unleash,
should I displease you?”

“So why,” today’s Hero asks,
“Does Bush insists on remaining in a house on fire?”
This penner posers…
“The Bush is Burning George, look out, look out.
Iraq is Burning fire fire
Pour on Water, Pour on Water

the CLIMATE you say, is CHANGING?

iT’S snowing in New Mexico though
nary a spring bulb able to stretch thru the depth
StoP, SmelL,
the memory of Spring Time will help us thru
this Winter of our Spirit…

“The second Holocaust will not be like the first” – Benny Morris

Benny Morris: “One bright morning, in five or ten years’ time…after Iran’s acquisition of the Bomb…The orders will go out and the Shihab III and IV missiles will take off for Tel Aviv, Beersheba, Haifa, and Jerusalem, and probably some military sites, including Israel’s half dozen air and (reported) nuclear missile bases….”

WHY does Israel keep the Israeli reporter in jail that allowed the whole world to know ISRAEL HAS NUCLEAR WEAPONS?

Benny Morris: “A million or more Israelis…will die immediately….Some of the dead will inevitably be Arab…1.3 million of Israel’s citizens are Arab and another 3.5 million additional Arabs live in the semi-occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip.”

HOW can a country be semi-occupied? Since all of the Jews were removed from the West Bank (Mr. Morris wrote this fear mongering on January 6, 2007) and controls all their borders, be more truthful and call it what it is: a concentration camp. Is “semi-occupied” then, of the West Bank, something like being a little bit pregnant?

Benny Morris: “Since then, the ministers and generals, like their counterparts in the West, have looked on glumly as Hizbullah’s patrons have been arming with doomsday weapons.”

WHEN did Hizbullah start “arming with doomsday weapons”? And Benny’s evidence is they even have them?

Benny Morris: “Taking out with conventional weapons the known Iranian facilities would take an American-size air force working round-the-clock for more than a month….Perhaps, after acquiring the Bomb…”

WHERE ARE the “known Iranian facilities”? The I.A.E.A. does not agree with Mr. B. M. Perhaps they live in the fantasy world of Iraq’s WMDs?

Benny Morris: “…(though, to judge from pictures of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the physical effects of nuclear explosions can be fairly unpleasant).”

FAIRLY UNPLEASANT! Having a baby is “fairly unpleasant”! Ask a Japanese living in Hiroshima or Nagasaki – they will tell you of the fires of hell dropped and how their searing burning skin pealed from their bodies!

We said then NEVER AGAIN. We say now NEVER AGAIN!

Now is a good time for all factions to stop proclaiming themselves guiltless. We are all guilty. Those that perpetrate the killing and those that stand by and do nothing to stop their government from the current deadly world-wide vengeful, resourse-grabbing, waring…for God, for Oil, for Earthly powers.

What news media, receiving the equivalent of the “Pentagon Papers”, would publish them today?

When our Head politicians stated goal is to defend “our” way of life,
and our way of life adds up to “an addiction to oil” and
Jaime Suchlicki of Miami U sounds his trumpet:
“Rising Communist threat in Latin America”,
what is the commonality between
“Communist States” and “Rogue States”?
The answer has 3 letters – O I L.

How many journalists have been killed since 9/11?
How many have served jail time and for how long?
Our great American hero, Daniel Ellsberg, tells us
his biggest regret was the number of years he waited
and the number of additional lives lost because
he hesitated in releasing the Pentagon Papers.

What will save us from the brink of world disaster?
We the people need to become a Daniel Ellsberg,
need action (not just prayers), or as Ray McGovern cautions:
“The hottest fires of hell are saved for those who knew
and did nothing.”
