Moyers on the war. And on who chooses to go and not go serve.

1. Some Folks are born to wave the flag ...ooh they love the red, white, and blue...

But when the band plays
Hail to the Chief ooh
they point the cannon at you...

some folks were born
silver spoons in hand
Lord don't they love to help themselves,
But when the taxman comes to the door
Lord the house looks like a rummage sale yea....

Some folks were born with star spangled eyes
ooh they love to send you down to war
But when you ask
How much should we give?
All they ever answer is more, more, more,
Lord, Lord, Lord,... it aint me,... I aint no senator's son...., I aint no fortunate one...

And they said this was not going to be another Vietnam, looks familiar to me.

6. If they had to fight, they would not support the war in Iraq.

They would, as they are doing now, evade paying the big price and change the rules to benefit their own needs. It's the Repbublicon creed.

How disgusting and selfish and sheepish they are!

8. Ah, great lyrics

2. Why are they not serving in Iraq? Two words...

They're pussies!!! They talk all that "Oh, I believe in the war and we fight them over there so we don't have to fight them here." Two more words...

BITCH PLEASE!!!

What they mean to say is that the strength of their convictions gives them the power to talk a lot of big boy shit, but when it comes right down to it they're only brave in enough to let YOU fight them over there so THEY don't have to fight them over here.

3. In the respect the President is a role model...

:/

5. Patriotism IS INDEED the last refuge of a scoundrel!

Watching these FINE, UPSTANDING young amerikans, I almost had a fucking stroke I got so MAD!!!!! They're exactly like a guy I once met in a bar back in the early '70s...
After regaling all of his equally-drunken frat buddies with the story of "What he did(n't) do in the War", he finished by saying (and this is a word-for-word quote) "We have to have a war every fifteen or twenty years or so just to keep the ghettos cleaned out. If we didn't, we'd be up to our asses in niggers and wetbacks...".
The guys name ?
George.
