\nP\u00e5 f\u00f8romtalte Bright Eyes-liveplade “Motion Sickness” findes nedenst\u00e5ende sang, en kommentar til det amerikanske enev\u00e6lde, der patruljerer verden derude. I den forbindelse skal ikke glemmes, at Danmark stadigv\u00e6k deltager aktivt i den FN-ulovlige krig i Irak, hvis “milit\u00e6re intervention” nu – if\u00f8lge iraqbodycount.org – minimum har 27.000 civile liv p\u00e5 samvittigheden. Hj\u00e6lpeorganistationer mener det tabstal skal ganges med 5-6 for at ramme virkelighed. Oven i det er s\u00e5 indtil videre 2000 unge uniformskl\u00e6dte amerikanere blevet fl\u00f8jet hjem i bodybags. Hvor mange tusinde soldater fra hjemlandet der er g\u00e5et tabt findes ingen tal p\u00e5. Noget af en frihed irakerne har f\u00e5et sig…<\/p>\n
WHEN THE PRESIDENT TALKS TO GOD<\/p>\n
When the president talks to God
\n Are the conversations brief or long?
\n Does he ask to rape our women\u2019s’ rights
\n And send poor farm kids off to die?
\n Does God suggest an oil hike
\n When the president talks to God?<\/p>\n
When the president talks to God
\n Are the consonants all hard or soft?
\n Is he resolute all down the line?
\n Is every issue black or white?
\n Does what God say ever change his mind
\n When the president talks to God?<\/p>\n
When the president talks to God
\n Does he fake that drawl or merely nod?
\n Agree which convicts should be killed?
\n Where prisons should be built and filled?
\n Which voter fraud must be concealed
\n When the president talks to God?<\/p>\n
When the president talks to God
\n I wonder which one plays the better cop
\n We should find some jobs. the ghetto’s broke
\n No, they’re lazy, George, I say we don’t
\n Just give ’em more liquor stores and dirty coke
\n That’s what God recommends<\/p>\n
When the president talks to God
\n Do they drink near beer and go play golf
\n While they pick which countries to invade
\n Which Muslim souls still can be saved?
\n I guess god just calls a spade a spade
\n When the president talks to God<\/p>\n
When the president talks to God
\n Does he ever think that maybe he’s not?
\n That that voice is just inside his head
\n When he kneels next to the presidential bed
\n Does he ever smell his own bullshit
\n When the president talks to God?<\/p>\n
I doubt it
\n I doubt it<\/p>\n
