Array ( [sid] => 33224 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => BUSH: IGNORANCE, ARROGANCE AND DIVISION [time] => 2004-01-30 11:52:28 [hometext] => [bodytext] => The Twin Towers were shattered
with so many decent lives lost
But it took such as Bush
To shatter peace at such a cost

He took planetary consensus
to create a safer world
And he traded all that in
For the lies he hurled

An illegal idiot act
lusted for by ignorant men
Wasted a chance for security
to bring us to ruin again

Divide and conquer
that’s a saying we know of old
Bush and his cohorts
made all our hopes grow cold

He took the goodwill
that existed in our world
And traded it for chaos
All power simply sold

Unable to wisely plan, protect or to pacify
He delivered death, mayhem and misery

Blindly following the words
of ugly-minded bigoted men
He led us all with lies
To the brink of ruin and then

slaughtered three times the number
who fell on September Eleven
With an arrogance of ignorance
and said it’s made in Heaven

He talked of the bible
in sanctimonious tones
But over in Iraq we hear
their pitiful death moans

He needs to realise the arrogance of power
And the blindness his lies cause
Not simply asserting how he was right
While displaying warmonger’s flaws

BUSH: IGNORANCE, ARROGANCE AND DIVISION

All right, i dont know who you are but i need to know if you were over there in Iraq. who are you to say these preposterous accusations. If i am wrong and you know what you are talking about then please fill me in. all you have done is ***** off and offend a soldier that fought for what was right. were you there to see all the starving faces in the streets and then go inside Saddam's palace where his ***** toilet is gold. his people that we helped were dying in front of his eyes and he was shtting in gold. You need to rethink the thoughts that Bush was wrong to send us over there and the only thing we have done is create hope for people whos lives were being taken daily for nothing. i dont comprehend how someone like yourself has any right to comment and post such ignorant lies. i would pay dearly to have seen your face over there when you saw the truth about what was happening. not what you interpretted from television. please tell me what you would have done better that would have ended the terror that people lived in everyday before we helped the innocent. you should be ashamed of your words and would highly recommend that you take a look at your life before bashing the decisions of my commander in chief.

sincerely
