I stay informed. I think. I give a rat's ass and that's why I do this.

Bush: Talking Out of His Butt, Again

Bush: Budget proposal to spur jobs, prosperity

Yea though I walk through the valley of death
I see fear and anxiety
and Bush pushing us into financial ruin
convincing people of coming prosperity

trying to provoke another war
moving money into death
out of peace
away from us
into the hands of the corporation

auctioning public goods to the lowest bidder
vomiting oil across the landscape
planting tumors in Mother Earth
a disdain for creation
and the everlasting

even the truly righteous now have fear
in the valley of death

A little prose to free my mind from the firm grip of dissonance. Bush has been successfully baffling us with bullshit, as there is no way he will ever rise to the challenge of dazzling us with brilliance.

I figure this to be a healthy exercise towards my goal of finding my stride on my MMV 100,000 word journey.


This should not be our valley
georgie porgie has brought us here
and he's got evil things on his mind
and legions of demons at his side

the weak refuse to stand up
their defeat yet hurts
like a wound from yesterday
languishing in congressional self pity
no defense for the wave of destruction

word to the wise:
get yourself moving
your sackcloth and ashes
will not win you any favor
with anyone

find your center, your mission, your vision and your values
and cram them right back down their throats
choking them with their toxic morality
once again trapping it in the pit of their stomachs
where it will eat them away from the inside
no longer unleashed
no longer free to devour us

Remember the fates of Job and Jonah
And Judas, too

I like to thump the Bible over Bible thumping heads. I also want to see some life in the Democrats. So, I'll thump them, too. And you, too, if you ask for it. Howard Dean could possibly be the right leader for now. There's a time to sow and a time to reap. The Democrats have some sowing to do, while Bush does his grim reaping. Dean values good governance. And so do we.
