We Currently Live in POLITICAL TYRANNY
Edited on Mon Feb-06-06 09:12 PM by stepnw1f
Wiretapping is for political subversives

Funding is being cut from Liberal Social Programs

Poor are being removed from their property

we now pay for corporations to exist by feeding the wealthy with Tax Cuts.

and now we have private companies counting our votes.

... there is no war on terror.


The WAR IS ON US!

4. OOOHHHH There's terror.....
I feel it every day. All 300 times a day when I have to think to myself "Is it time to leave this country now? Should I leave before it's too late?"

Or what about when I look at a picture of an Iraqi mother screaming, crying, holding her bloody lifeless baby in her arms and I get that feeling like someone just reached into my chest and tore my heart out because I know this is MY country that did this?

How about when I turn on my TV to watch hearings about the President breaking the law, stripping us of our freedom, and pissing on our Constitution, and I see the Attorney General telling my elected representatives to go wipe their asses with that "goddamned piece of paper" and there's nothing they can or will do about it?

So all I can do is continue on, trying to change things, knowing full well deep down inside that it may be too late and if I wait too long to leave this country, my home, members of my family that don't want to leave, my friends, my LIFE, that I may ruin my children's lives and they have to come first.

So I sit up at night. Later and later every night. Sometimes I can't sleep at all.

I feel the terror.

5. and the greatest theft in history is taking place . . .
where is that half TRILLION in "defense" funds going? . . . since it doesn't even include expenditures for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan (not to mentin Iran and/or Syria), even the most outlandish assumptions about black ops, missile defense, and all the rest doesn't come close to accounting for this kind of money . . .

it's going into lots of pockets, which is probably why virtually no one in office is willing to stand up and tell the truth about BushCo . . .

7. we are the underclass
Edited on Tue Feb-07-06 06:16 AM by sweetheart
We are underclass, the women, vets and gay,
the disabled, poor, nonchristians, brown, and the gray,
potheads, natives, new agers, hey we don't count,
we just oil the machine, but don't count us out,
lost on the spreadsheet, least likely to vote,
so bloody why feed us, we might dig your mote,
and then you can live in a lords barony,
surrounded by crime where no one is free.

Terror of life without choice or the chance,
avoiding police state and its mortal advance,
but nobody cares in the upper class part,
feed us some slaves, bloody red heart,
drink distilled blood, we do the rest,
Empire of crud, built on our chest.

8. yup, we've been soaking in it for quite a while, its only just now percola
percolating to the surface for the corporate media.

I would say its even too late to try to flee the country. Nazi germany has set in. fasten your seatbelts, we're all in for bumpy ride through the 7 concentric rings of hell.

I wish I could be more optimistic, but I already know too much.
