Array ( [sid] => 41551 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Our Red, White, And Blue [time] => 2004-04-03 00:23:19 [hometext] => [bodytext] => What is this world we come to know
To me it's nothing but a freak show
Children sleeping in the streets,
Without a dime to their name
And nothing to eat.

Fathers raping daughters'
And priests are out of order
This is certainly not,
What the doctor had ordered

Countries going to war
Soon our world will be know more
Politicians are raising taxes,
While the poor are busting their *****

Gang members in the streets,
Killing one another
Why can't we all get along,
And help thy brother

The national anthem is being
Pulled from schools
This makes me wonder
Is this country run by fools'

People driving intoxicated,
Killing others
Because they over accelerated
Children can't even play video games,
Cause they're over rated

Well Bush
I have your number too
**** You
This is Our Red, White, And Blue.

Yes, our country is being run by a fool, absolutely with all the court jesters right behind him. We have to put the rights of the people back into the hands of the people and out of the hands of rich zealots. This is a great write, Rylo. Good for you.
