Yes, Karl, There IS An ANTI-WAR MOVEMENT!
"There is no anti-war movement" spun master liar and treasonist, Karl Rove. The Anti-War Protest in Washington D. C. on Saturday, September 24th has proven Karl Rove wrong. There IS an Anti-War Movement, and it is growing!
Americans exercising their constitutional rights gathered by the thousands in the mean streets of our nation's capital to express their lack of support for the Bush Administration and it's war of aggression in Iraq.
The marchers hailed from every state in the Union and included all ages, races, genders, the religious and non-religious, military families, veterans from WWII, Vietnam, and BOTH Iraq wars, fathers, mothers, and grandparents, hippies, straights, former Bush voters, and EVEN some Republicans!
Many other Americans protested in cities closer to their homes. Some watched the coverage on C-SPAN at home, like we did. Still others participated "across the blue pond" where over one hundred thousand British compatriots took to the streets of London to send an anti-war message to Bush's buddy, fellow warmonger, Tony Blair.
Let's celebrate the American Patriots who gathered together to lead the fight against the anti-life, pro preemptive, "perpetual war" addicted neoconservatives. Their conspiracy is the most dire threat against American democracy and the freedom of her citizens in the history of this country.
YES, Karl, there IS an ANTI-WAR MOVEMENT and it's coming your way!
Back in the 60's you and your neocon cronies supported that other illegal war, the war in Vietnam. You remember, don't you. All of you were hawks but you didn't have the balls to A) enlist and fight the war you supported or B) stand against that war in the streets of America. How deadly ironic that you and your bloody brothers are responsible for starting and supporting yet another war: the war in Iraq.
For my friends who died in Vietnam, for the vets who bear the physical scars of war, and for the veterans who are trapped in a nightmare of never-ending war in their heads, I flash you a hearty middle finger salute.
Also, I dedicate the following song to you, Karl, and to Douglas Feith, Paul Wolfowitz, Dick Cheney (who had other things to do), Richard Perle, Newt Gingrich, and all of the rest of you imperialist, flag-waving cowards including George W. Bush whose combat missions were limited to barroom brawls in Texas.
The following song lyrics were written and recorded by Phil Ochs in 1965. It was written for you guys. Ain't you special!
DRAFT DODGER RAG
Oh I'm just a typical American boy
from a typical American town
I believe in God and Senator Dodd
and keeping old Castro down
And when it can my time to serve
I knew better dead than red
But when I got to my old draft board
buddy, this is what I said:
Sarge, I'm only eighteen, I got a reptured spleen
and I always carry a purse
I got eyes like a bat, my feet are flat
and my asthma's getting worse
O think of my career, my sweetheart dear,
and my poor old invalid aunt
Besides, I ain't no fool, I'm a goin' to school
and I'm working in a defense plant.
I've got a dislocated disc and a racked-up back
I'm allergic to flowers and bugs
And when the bombshell hits, I get epileptic fits
and I 'm addicted to a thousand drugs
I got the weakness woes, I can't touch my toes
I can hardly reach my knees
And if the enemy came close to me
I'd probably start to sneeze.
(chorus)
I hate Chou En Lai, and I hope he dies
but one thing you gotta see
That someone's gotta go over there
and that someone isn't me
So I wish you well, Sarge, give 'em Hell
Yeah, kill me a thousand or so
And if you ever get a war without blood and gore
I'll be the first to go.

YO! SCREWED-UP, ANONYMOUS NO NAME, YOU.....I quiver in your wake...GEEZ-- SHUT-UP! I am 55 years old and have had the likes of you for breakfast. Frankly...you are boring.
I am a WOMAN. We give birth to and raise children......We DO NOT KILL THEM...YOU DO, just to PROVE that you have BALLS. FIND ANOTHER GAME, you walking distortion of life. Hey, try reading for a change!
Great post. I can just picture Karl Rove's son enlisting. Or Jeb Bush's son, or anyone named Wolfowitz, Cheney, DeLay, Limbaugh... They're all a bunch of pathetic chickenhawks.
TOM HARPER...It is amazing how much cowards enjoy creating war....then their spinless offspring survive (because they never fight) to breed yet another generation of manipulative war planners.
I think anyone in the Senate who votes for war must go himself or herself or send their spouses or children in their stead. We'd see a lot less conflict and money wasted on weapons.
COMRADE ???? Thomas....Boy, aren't you a tough racist. Wow, did you coin the term..."beige savages". I am just guessing but I think you are a "milk white warmonger"
I assume that you are an expert on the Middle East...Do you speak Arabic? You must as you have claimed that "they" have "filthy minds". Therefore, you must have read many books in Arabic and had many, many converstions the people from Iraq, Egypt, Yeman, Saudi Arabia and all of the other countries in the regions to have come to such a conclusion.
Well, as much as I disagree with you I wish you luck in Iraq,(Iran and Syria.) I have seen what war does to people because I am a Vet and I wouldn't even wish it on you. YOU are ENLISTING aren't you?
Ya'll little boys better duck,
‘cause when you bring your bullshit here,
Kitchen Window Woman gonna burst you up,
send you home quivering in fear.
Great post!
For damn sure will order this CD ... what a song.
Great blog you havee
