days of yesterday
Days of conflicts solved
with war
such as this
politics
of rhetoric
not backed
with the grace
of what is right or wrong
have discredited
our men and women
to the world
our children pay that price
it is too much to ask
them to pay
this business of war
costly
ignorance
of all that we are giving up
to stay in it
costs more
than I am willing to watch
fade
like a last
view
of freedom
the days
have gone
the credits
come in full view
and we see the end soon
and to this end
we lost
because it
was not a movie
worthy
of all we are giving up
those days
have gone
when the pledge
we take
has to be the stand
we keep
after the whole
world
has told
us to QUIT
this
makes
it hard
for us to ever
live again
in harmony
with the human race
he made
more than one mistake
he forgot
to ask
and he forgot
to listen
when the world
said
STOP
this insanity
he pledged
us to this fate
and still
he spends
money
to make it all continue
everyday
our way of life
is under fire
and we
are targets
of global HATRED
he made more than one mistake
and we stood
by this administration
and did not dare to question
while the world
keeps SAYING
please America
just STOP
JUST stop
being bullies
JUST STOP
and let us show
you there is
a whole human
race worth knowing
HE MADE more than one mistake
and now we are paying
a price
for those mistakes,lies, and errors
this war is bad business
if it were a direction of a company
we would fire the ceo
declare him
or her insane
because the war
has put us all at risk
for hatred
inside and out
we are fighting
now
about the way things
use to be
the fight to stand
again
will not be easy
we must fight for the way
things use to be!©

Re: Mr. Bush Made One Mistake
Interesting take on this! Never heard of that rumor; but I'm sure any sense of gratitude on Osama bin Hidin's part was overuled by the massive losses suffered by al Qaeda. Was not one of the goals of the invasion to draw al Qaeda into combat and destroy them there rather than allowing them to come here and attack us again?
Be that as it may - what have you to say about the other goals of the invasion, namely the overthrow of Sadaam, the end of his reign of terror and his open support for and funding of terrorism, the freeing of the Iraqis and the establishment of a democratic government? Just wondering . . .

Mr. Bush Made One Mistake
It has often been said that truth is the first casualty of war. In the case of Iraq, truth was a casualty even before the war. Citing intelligent reports, which later proved false, both Mr. Bush and his vice-president created the great urban myth that Iraq was a breeding ground for Al Quaida operatives. Subsequent reports revealed that not to be the case, and subsequent events, precipitated by the fact that Mr. Bush had started the war, provided wonderful opportunities for Al Quaida to get involved in Iraq.
I am in no position to comment on the rumour that Osama Bin Laden sent Mr. Bush a thank you card for making that happen, but I suspect the Al Quaida leader can appreciate an irony as much as the next person, especially such an irony as Mr. Bush creating the exact opposite of what he really wanted. As Peter, Paul and Mary said back in the 60s in a very famous song, "when will they ever learn?"
One hopes before the next election.
