No sacrifice by W family members. It's just party on for them.

2. To Tony, the deaths are just a number
in his elitist view.

3. Try just walking out on the street...
and count the first two thousand, nine hundred and forty six people that you encounter.

Then imagine them gone.

Then mulitiply that by ten and imagine a lot of really fucked-up men and women.

Never gonna be the same as they were.

Never.

Then multiply that by a great big effing bunch of innocent Iraqis

5. I am too scared to close my eyes.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxFRFIssQDc


Enveloped in a sentiment,
A sound that rushes over me.
Engage an impulse to pretend
I have a faith as pure.
Not forgetting what it means to dream.
Indulging everything.
Entertaining thoughts that I've the strength
Of those I yearn to be.
Cheers and tribute greet the saviours.
Reckless thoughts survive.
Anachronistic and impulsive.

And what will happen?
Will I dream?
I am too scared to close my eyes.
For a second please hold me.
None can change in me these things that I believe.
But I don't know what happens now.
I am too scared to close my eyes.


Legion

6. And all for nothing
W could have sought peace. He sought war. His legacy will tell the story. He sold out to corporations and the war machine at the cost of our troops.

His story will be told.

7. the number one resolution in 2007 should be for us
to send these murderers that this needless war in Iraq must end, and a clear exit plan must be executed. Let's see what will happen in the 110th Congress, I will be watching them very closely.
