    "Righteous killing in the name of freedom

    We've been down that sorry road before

    They let us hang around a little longer than they should have

    And it's too late to fool us anymore

    We've seen the ones who killed the ones with vision

    Cold-blooded murder right before your eyes

    Today they hold the power and the money and the guns

    It's getting hard to listen to their lies.

    And I've just got to wonder what my Daddy would've done

    If he'd seen the way they turned his dream around

    I've got to go by what he told me, try to tell the truth

    And stand your ground

    DON'T LET THE BASTARDS GET YOU DOWN

    Bombing Baghdad back into the stone age

    Round the clock, nonstop for forty days

    Killed 'em in their homes and on their highways

    Then after a decade of crippling sanctions

    We decided we go back in there and do it all over again

    Fighting terrorism

    Chorus"

    Thanks Kris.

      I love this song.

      I could have used it yesterday on a OmegaGnosis thread in which she was tryin real hard to promote insidious innuendo as fact.

      But today, AOL has this video.

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTgqQ2_KQkc

      So the song AND the video make me feel better.

      Thanks!

          I will bookmark that one Goppy! Still get ludicrous e mails making those claims. I will never underestimate the diabolical tactics of those who would seek to manipulate democracy, nor the willingness of so many (GWB's presidency proves it) to be lied to and like it.

            Goppy:

            That was right on!!!

            I've been taking a lashing for saying the Bush gang should get what they deserve. You know justice!!

            Unfortunately the neocons believe justice is only needed for those they find guilty. Even if they aren't guilty.

            But hey don't say Bush and the gang deserve to be tried and hung for the treason and murder they have committed.

            Lets focus on all the innuendos and outright lies about Barak Obama and anyone at goes against what they see as their "righteousness".

            It is going to be righteousessly hot where they are headed if they don't repent. LOL

              Hey CBG I agree with you about Bush and CO. Thought you handled yourself well on that vicous thread (so did N2N, Goppy, and a few others.).

              The reason they're focusing on the innuendos and outright lies on Barack is they've got nothing else on him. Not only that but whenever I hear things like this, and Scott's book taking center stage everywhere, I wonder what is happening that they -Bush and Co- don't want us to know about.

              I want to know more about the drugs McSame is taking and why. I also think the facts about Cindy's drug addictions are more important than a rumor about what Michelle may have said. I also think McSame's Reverends endorsements and where he goes to church for how long, why he left, who he's thrown under the bus is just as important. Seriously, his lack of support for Vets and Veterans causes bothers me.

            Man, that song certainly describes the life and times of today. The more things change, the more they stay the same!!

            Thanks Bkumm! Great submission.

                          Hey BK this is an awesome submission. (Thought you handled yourself well on a couple of the threads.)

                          Never heard the song before but think it's an appropriate anthem of sorts.

                            It is getting harder to not let the bastards get ME down..

                            Good one Bkumm.

                            I pray for our troops to come home ...everynight.

                            The bastards lied to get them over to Iraq.

                            I hope that they, as in "the ones who sent them to war" have a slow painful death.

                            Thank you.
