Some days I just cannot get past the utter depravity of it all. We've got cold-blooded mass murder, routine torture, blind blinded blinding patriotism, and a media-inspired madness that has self-described Christians clamoring for all manner of grotesque and inhuman cruelty. Merry Christmas to all.
And it gets worse: Now we're supposed to believe that this horror is justified by the president's claim that God speaks through him. Oh really? What kind of God would tell anyone to do this? What kind of America would allow it?
Words fail me. Or at least, I don't have any more words of my own.
Listen to Pye Dubois, writing for Max Webster:
Oh War
Oh war, it's been done before
that's what they say
I wasn't there, they say there's one today
I don't care, I'm not there today
'cause I'd say "fuck you" instead of "thank you"
your choice under your breath
oh say go to hell
I'll go American express
Oh war, history says you're in it
your sister's boyfriend's in it
so so long, soldier, wash your socks and guns
and just remember
if you don't see a profit, sell your stocks and run
'cause I'd say "fuck you" instead of "thank you"
your choice under your breath
oh say no to hell
I'll go American express
