    the old men march slowly, their bones stiff and sore,

    they’re tired old heroes from a forgotten war.

    and the young people ask, “What are they marching for?”

    and I ask myself the same question.

      Politicians hide themselves away

      They only started the war

      Why should they go out to fight?

      They leave that role to the poor.

      Time will tell on their power minds

      Making war just for fun

      Treating people just like pawns in chess

      Wait till their judgement day comes

    Thanks for picking up the slack while the US is messin around and not getting stuff done. Hopefully they can get their act together and resume support soon.

      regrettably, i think it’s wise for the international community to assume that the US will not get its act together any time soon.

        We won’t, we are having problems deciding which flavor of genocide we would like to support.

        Oddly enough, very few people actually seem to want no genocide as an option. We did good for most of 23, but decided we really really wanted to help kill a bunch of innocent children.
