BUSH'S PLAN FOR PEACE

IS THE PEACE OF THE COMMON GRAVE






Let America Be America Again



Let America be America again.
Let it be the dream it used to be.
Let it be the pioneer on the plain
Seeking a home where he himself is free.

(America never was America to me.)

Let America be the dream the dreamers dreamed--
Let it be that great strong land of love
Where never kings connive nor tyrants scheme
That any man be crushed by one above.

(It never was America to me.)

O, let my land be a land where Liberty
Is crowned with no false patriotic wreath,
But opportunity is real, and life is free,
Equality is in the air we breathe.

(There's never been equality for me,
Nor freedom in this "homeland of the free.")

Say, who are you that mumbles in the dark?
And who are you that draws your veil across the stars?

I am the poor white, fooled and pushed apart,
I am the Negro bearing slavery's scars.
I am the red man driven from the land,
I am the immigrant clutching the hope I seek--
And finding only the same old stupid plan
Of dog eat dog, of mighty crush the weak.

I am the young man, full of strength and hope,
Tangled in that ancient endless chain
Of profit, power, gain, of grab the land!
Of grab the gold! Of grab the ways of satisfying need!
Of work the men! Of take the pay!
Of owning everything for one's own greed!

I am the farmer, bondsman to the soil.
I am the worker sold to the machine.
I am the Negro, servant to you all.
I am the people, humble, hungry, mean--
Hungry yet today despite the dream.
Beaten yet today--O, Pioneers!
I am the man who never got ahead,
The poorest worker bartered through the years.

Yet I'm the one who dreamt our basic dream
In the Old World while still a serf of kings,
Who dreamt a dream so strong, so brave, so true,
That even yet its mighty daring sings
In every brick and stone, in every furrow turned
That's made America the land it has become.
O, I'm the man who sailed those early seas
In search of what I meant to be my home--
For I'm the one who left dark Ireland's shore,
And Poland's plain, and England's grassy lea,
And torn from Black Africa's strand I came
To build a "homeland of the free."

The free?

Who said the free? Not me?
Surely not me? The millions on relief today?
The millions shot down when we strike?
The millions who have nothing for our pay?
For all the dreams we've dreamed
And all the songs we've sung
And all the hopes we've held
And all the flags we've hung,
The millions who have nothing for our pay--
Except the dream that's almost dead today.

O, let America be America again--
The land that never has been yet--
And yet must be--the land where every man is free.
The land that's mine--the poor man's, Indian's, Negro's, ME--
Who made America,
Whose sweat and blood, whose faith and pain,
Whose hand at the foundry, whose plow in the rain,
Must bring back our mighty dream again.

Sure, call me any ugly name you choose--
The steel of freedom does not stain.
From those who live like leeches on the people's lives,
We must take back our land again,
America!

O, yes,
I say it plain,
America never was America to me,
And yet I swear this oath--
America will be!

Out of the rack and ruin of our gangster death,
The rape and rot of graft, and stealth, and lies,
We, the people, must redeem
The land, the mines, the plants, the rivers.
The mountains and the endless plain--
All, all the stretch of these great green states--
And make America again!



Langston Hughes

1. Babbs looks like she's thinking, "He's still a useless fuck,
even after all the money we spent trying to straighten him out."

DUH-bya looks stoned. What a fucking crew. :puke:

2. Is that a * family photo at Reagan's funeral with adopted
Clinton family members? This reminds me of the picture of Pickles and * at the Popes funeral. She was wearing sun glasses inside and * laid a full mouth kiss on her during the service. I never have been able to figure that one out. The 'creepy' really comes out when they go to a funeral. Peace, Kim

7. Not nearly as creepy as Bushler smirking and smiling his way through the 9-11 service
I don't think there is any doubt he is the most evil man to ever rule our nation, and he has brought it to the brink of destruction, maybe pushed it over, already.

The photo that gets play, and the only one I could find on the web was Poppy and monstrous Babs, smiling insanely as if they were Satan themselves



But what I remember most on that fateful day was Bushler himself was full of secret smirks and grins. Someone actually pointed it out to me and it was the first time I experienced the shudder of what we all now know, that Bushler is a very very bad man, perhaps as capable of evil as Hitler, but still not yet beong presented with the opportunity to murder his Liberal enemies by the millions.

I will never forget Bushler's smirks and smiles, not to mention Bsbs' voracious and wide-eyed glee at the muders of 9-11 as pictured above.

4. "Money trumps peace .. sometimes." Bu$h, 2/14/2007.
"Money trumps peace sometimes; in other words, commercial interests are very powerful."

Watch the vapid, petulant little Bu$h say it:

8. Thank you for posting this.
This tells the story. These pictures are very powerful. The comments here are interesting. Each picture is graphic. It is interesting that the most powerful picture was that of seemingly normal looking humans. I am guilty of it as well. The pictures of coffins, bombings and dead are heartbreaking but the picture of * and his cohorts in crime cause an unpleasant physical reaction. Peace, Kim
