Nice. I love Emmylou. Miss ol' GP though.

Before Dylan...

I'm gonna tell all you fascists
You may be surprised
The people all over this world
Are getting organized
You're bound to lose
You fascists are bound to lose

Race hatred cannot stop us
This one thing I know
Your poll tax and Jim Crow
And greed have got to go
You're bound to lose
You fascists are bound to lose

All of you fascists are bound to lose
You fascists are bound to lose
You fascists are bound to lose
You're bound to lose
You fascists are bound to lose

People of every color
Marching side by side
Marching 'cross the fields
Where a million fascists died
You're bound to lose
You fascists are bound to lose
All you fascists are bound to lose
You fascists are bound to lose
You fascists are bound to lose
You're bound to lose
You fascists are bound to lose

And before Woody...

I wish I was a mole in the ground
Yes I wish I was a mole in the ground
If I's a mole in the ground I'd root that mountain down
And I wish I was a mole in the ground...

It's not God's war to stop.... it's our war to stop...
no reflection on you, PS, i hear your frustration and rage...

i feel lots of that and other things...

whether you believe in God or not, we (the US) started this war and we (the US) need to stop it....

from this perspective, we have been kinda brainwashed into passivity...
people hate it, but they tolerate it... more and more and more....
that's the beginnings middle and ends of fascism...

because we always outnumber 'em...

well I don't believe in God and I do believe we need to stop this war and I am pissed that so many have made profits on so many deaths and I do send vibes to GiGi and everybody over there and if I had the power to pull them all out today I would because I think that to be much more effective than prayers

How true agnes. Even without religion, we would still have the law of the jungle. Of course the way we are going, that in itself will a some point in time become a bit of a paradox, because we may have no jungles (or rainforests) left. When that happens I'm sure that the law of the jungle will be enforced by many people even more than it is today, even though we ain't got no jungles left. I dunno. I guess on the bright side, we will be the fossil fuel for people 65 million years from now or something. I like to do my part you know. :wink:

yes you do! you seem gifted that way (for lack of a better way of putting it)

this is from part of the song, with god on our side that you posted

"The confusion I'm feelin'
Ain't no tongue can tell
The words fill my head
And fall to the floor "

apparantly i am not the only one who is talented that way

speakin' of religion..............as I was driving home from work today there was a car in front of me with several interesting stickers on the back window........one had a picture of a fetus in a womb and it read "this is a life NOT a choice" the other one read......Evoloution was when the "Scientists" made monkeys of themselves.
I thought they were very clever even tho I don't agree.

Anger creates bluntness, and is not always a bad thing. No use beating around any bush.

But tho the words fell to the floor
He was still up stream fishin'
and .... the rest of the story
is still fillin' his head ...
till that day when he looks back and says




.... Mission Accomplished ...
till we meet again
