hittin' the fan

junior bush is ready to even the score,
tellin' our sons and daughters, "let's go to war,"

it's not our fault he didn't get him last time,
nine one one raised the bar--situation prime

because daddy bush didn't get his man,
does this mean the fur's about to hit the fan?

we all fear another terrorist attack,
should we go after korea and iraq?

we watch the terror level rise every day
weapons of mass destruction come into play,

because daddy bush didn't get his man,
does this mean the fur's fixin' to hit the fan?

i'd like to stick around for a few more years,
but the situation grows tense, more severe,

why doesn't the top brass go to the front lines?
why should we pay with our son's and daughter's lives???

because daddy bush didn't get his man,
does this mean the fur's fixin' to hit the fan?

hittin' the fan - Hi Karla - sorry for the late post. I'm going through war poems today, trying to get people to agree that this war is unprovoked. This is what I am posting around: I listened live to all the speeches by Mr. Bush, and Mr. Powell's presentations at the UN - I also obtained the text from these. My opinion was that it was a lot of repeated rhetoric and old documents (available on the web-proven and reported by CNN to be in large part plagerized) presented as "new evidence" from British Intelligence. With each new presentation, the US justification for war became less credible. If anyone is truly interested in knowing the rationale for my stand, I offer them the following url which addresses all the "issues" raised at the UN and has point by point referenced quotes from US agents and UN inspectors that almost completely contradict what the US White House resident has told us is an imminent threat to our security... (Interests). Inspections and high tech monitoring give Saddam no chance to rebuild a weapons arsenal - aren't inspections and monitoring a better way than war, which will only provoke increased retaliation on the American people?

It is not enough to hope and pray, we must work towards peace as well.

Certainly praying...
Another good write, Karla. I do
feel a touch of fear...I have two
sons of 'draft' age (if the draft returns)

I don't think it was daddy bush's man anyway. It is the enemy of the world and Saddam's own people. The surprise to a lot of folks will be the freedojm of the citizens of this country who live in fear nd are afraid to talk. Sit back and watch then. Excellent poem for its levity in the situation orange that exists today.
Love,peace and harmony,
Susan

Excellent, Karla. It's not just Iraq. It's North Korea, then Iran, then maybe Lybia, Syria, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Philippines, Indonesia, then maybe France and Germany. Anyone but Israel because we're willing to ignore its terrorist policies in the Middle East. Is this the way to go? Bomb everybody. PEACE IS THE WAY. Love, Alex
