I missed today's smirking,
drooling, leaning teleprompter reading. What did the backdrop say? "We got yer kids, now we're comin' fer you"?

3. strategery
The moron stated how it was good that we went into Iraq
because sodom killed people, but he failed to mention all of the
people killed in other countries that we have not invaded......yet.
All of the other countries that had mean dictators, but had no oil.

STRATEREGY MARCH

I'm gonna musterize all our forces
I'm gonna work tirednesslessly
I'm gonna formate coalessions and investmentize the wealth
We have nothing to fear but afraidness itself

I'm gonna speech to all of the medias
so presidentishly
I'm a visionizing man with a calculatored plan
What does it take?
Strateregy!

I know I'm destinated for leadershiphood
I'll inspirate the public to citizenry
Lookit my latest acquiration--it's a nation up for shale
Now I wish I'd gone to clash when my profeshor back at Yale

Tried to explain the electorical college
Gotta admit, it's Grecian to me
Anyway, who needs votes to take the White House?
What does it take?
Strateregy!

7. My bad; I should have been clearer.

It's the name of a band; I wasn't referring to Smirk.


YOU AND ME AND TOM (1997)

We're crashing at your parents' pad
on our way down to the pride parade
you must've lied 'cause the word "pride"
has been replaced by the words "free trade"
you never said home was a subdivision called "patriot hills"
someone tore down the Berlin Wall
yet this is still Flagwaverville
Everyone's palefaced and no-one's poor
nothing has changed since the civil war
there's NRA stickers on the door

In the garage there's a corsage
proudly preserved since your junor prom
and there's a torch they keep on the porch
in case they need it for someone's lawn
then there's the shrine:
photos of golden boys in hordes loom in the den
lovingly culled since you were born, and born again, and born again
everyone's dressed for a pilgrimage
the Readers Digests are all abridged
there's NRA magnets on the fridge
and I wonder what you're gonna tell your mom
about you and me and Tom

'cause the family's collapsing, the family's collapsing
haven't you people heard the news?
it's decreed open season on all social taboos
'cause the family's collapsing, the family's collapsing
couples are bailing out in force
if you can't keep abreast of the rest, get a divorce

dinner is served
rules are observed
you never told me you played with tanks
everyone takes fifty ounce steaks
bowing their heads to their knees in thanks
Holy Genet
nothing I possibly could say wouldn't be rude
somehow the bathroom must be safe
"may I be excused? I swallowed some food."
under the portrait of young Bob Hope
sharing a platitude with the Pope
there's NRA carved into the soap
and I wonder what you're gonna tell your mom
about you and me and Tom

but the family's collapsing, the family's collapsing
haven't you people heard a thing?
all that's virtuous, righteous and good hangs by a string
'cause the family's collapsing, the family's collapsing
it's not an actual family
it's a Christian condition become metonymy

tell them you're broke
tell them you smoke
tell them you're joining the Viet Cong
tell them you're dead and you're inbred
and you've decided that Rush is wrong
tell them it all:
you've joined a cult of wise fakirs who only eat beans
you've found a promising career in porn magazines in New Orleans
tell them you're Noam Chomsky's protegee
tell them you're anything else but gay
tell them you've blown up the NRA
and I wonder when you're gonna tell your mom
about you and me and Tom.

2. I WANT TO KNOW...When Bush said 19 countries have sent 1000's of troops
to Iraq to help....WHY DID NO REPORTER ASK..."How come we have never been shown any of these foreign troops? Wouldn't you think the American authorities would be showing them on TV if they were really there???....THIS HAS BEEN REALLY BUGGING ME!!!!!

4. Another one of those technically correct but extremely misleading
statements.

Cute, huh?

8. Then a reporter should have asked the question to point that out!
If ANY of these so-called journalists were doing their jobs, this stuff would be pointed out to the American public!....Instead the masses believe this shit that the CAUSE in Iraq is greatly supported internationally!....Disgusting!!!!

9. "The regime has no chance of coming back."
Of course, that's total bullshit, since the head of that regime is still out there making tapes to rally his people. But then, whattaya expect from a guy who was born in the endzone and thought he scored a touchdown.
