United We Stained

United We Stained


“Not in our name!” we railed, against an illegal war.

“Not in our name!” we cried, against the senseless slaughter of men, women and children for a crime they didn’t commit.

“Not in our name!” we pleaded, against torture and abuse.

But in our name, George Bush, America’s representative to the world, brought death and destruction.


In our name, America tortures, maims and kills. In our name, America “renders” people to foreign lands so they can be water-boarded and beaten - in some cases to the death. In our name, America is a war crime nation. In our name, America has been stained, stained with the blood of victims; stained by the refusal of our government to end their policy of torture and their culture of violence.



United we stained.

“Not in our name!” Even still – in our name, these things were done.


In our name, the Bush Regime has made a mockery of everything America is supposed to stand for. In our name, the Bush Regime has brought great shame upon America and her citizens. In our name, the world no longer looks to America as a beacon of hope - they now look at us with disgust and even fear. It is said that the capacity for mercy is greatest in the greatest, but what about the capacity for cruelty? Is this what it means to be “the” Super-Power? That America can break the laws that govern humanity, that America can deny the truth of her heinous crimes and still call herself the “the greatest nation on earth?” Is that what America is to you? Does such criminal hypocrisy represent America to you?


United we stained.

“Not in our name!” Even still – in our name, these things were done.


The world doesn’t see individual Americans. The world doesn’t see the divided nation we know America to truly be. They see a nation that allowed a war criminal back into office. Let me repeat that - They see a nation that allowed a war criminal back into office.


The stain is there and it can’t be washed away. It’s America’s stain and it is our stain. Neither time nor history can ever rewrite the truth of America’s crimes.


But it’s not yet too late to do something about it.

In our name, impeach and remove from office the Bush Regime.
In our name, demand that the guilty, all the guilty, be tried for war crimes.
In our name, deny freedom to those that have denied the freedom of others - by sending the guilty to prison.

For America's sake

In our name – do the right thing.

1. That is the truth, and that is also what needs to be done.

Now if we could just get most of the Dems to understand this.

Solly you do us all proud, with your bright and shining mirror of a mind.

[Solly Mack]

2. Thank you, C4B

How anyone can look at news and pictures so clearly exposing America's guilt and not understand that the Bush Regime must be imprisoned is beyond comprehension.

[Cults4Bush]

6. Comprehension skills seem to be lacking amongst our electorate,

that or they wilfully ignore the crimes of their comrades in arms... maybe both?

Any little ol' way you cut it though its bad bad bad on so many levels that you need a degree in Chaos Theory in order to unravel the crimes and their implications.

[Solly Mack]

12. Every day brings fresh tears for each new outrage

They're trying to beat us down.

We can't let them.

((((fooj)))

5. Absolutely BEAUTIFUL, Solly Mack.

Those are the words in my heart which
I am not talented enough to write.

In our name- do the right thing.

[Solly Mack]

7. Thank you

I wish I knew which words would change the minds of those who support Bush's crimes. I would chant them over and over if I did. The documentation hasn't done it. The picture proof hasn't done it. Seems nothing can...

[Richard Steele]

9. Anyone who still supports B*sh today will never change.

They have proven themselves to be beyond
the reach of reality itself;
they are beyond redemption.

I suggest that everyone accept this simple fact,
and prepare accordingly.

8. Oh Solly, my heart breaks

with these beautiful, painfully true words :cry:

This is why we can't give up. We can't give up until we prevail.

We must live, breathe, create PEACE everywhere we go.

:hug:

[Solly Mack]

10. You're right - We can't give up

Even when our voices are being ignored - we must keep trying.

(((((meganmonkey))))))

18. Do send this to your local editor

It is so sad and so true.

[Solly Mack]

21. My "local" editor wouldn't publish it

my "local" rag is a military paper. I could try the local German paper - or send it to a paper in the states.

Thank you!!
