Array ( [sid] => 21308 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => GOOD GODDAMN! [time] => 2003-07-31 20:05:00 [hometext] => Watch out for the reasons for this war shifting like the golden sands of Arabia. Also, Plan B, which will be a voluminous and detailed report of highly circumstantial "evidence" of Iraqi WMD programs. This mirage should be enough to muddy the waters sufficiently to confuse the public and get the politicians through. Watch for this at a critical juncture near the start of Bush's re-election campaign." [bodytext] =>
O/

No WMDs?
Okay, muddy the water
Distract them enough
For further slaughter

The next big thing
To prove that they’re right
A massive report
That it was good to fight

Are you ready for circumstantial?
For the minutest detail?
They will give you the “evidence”
To protest their “innocence”

Not WMDs of course
But the spin will be just enough
To make them sound right
And make them sound tough

But the timing must be right
It must be politically correct
Just as the campaign starts
To get you to re-elect

So watch the presses
The print will be massive
They’ll snow you again
To get you good and passive

Then on to target two
Rumoured to be Iran
As long as YOU don’t mind...
Why should THEY give a Good Goddamn? [comments] => 4 [counter] => 228 [topic] => 41 [informant] => Steeleyes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => political )

Hey Steeleyes,
Very, very well said! I am sick of our leaders
thinking we are stupid and that we will just
forget that these supposed wmds was
their main selling point for starting this war.
You really sum it all up beautifully!
Keep it coming!
