we are bound to the decisions of one greed mongering party. They choose to invade a country for money and resources and kill off countless priceless lives. Bush truely reminds me of (lol) a series called the lex. There's an alternate side of the galexy where there is a planet called earth. In this planet there is a complete moron voted for president because he was chosen by an evil power hungry devil. Just a pawn in a large reality he doesn't even "compahand" as bush would say~.

Great photo.
Kinda reminds me of an old punk song from DRI
Snap:

No, there are no easy answers
To sum up the problems which we face
History's a lesson, let us learn by our mistakes
Just don't expect to make sense
Out of what you see
For I can tell you now that
Knowing is believing
So if you open your mind you might understand
You're the victim of a bigtime government scam
And though you may not be inclined to believe
The man behind the desk does get paid to deceive
You live in your little dream world
You're much too cool to care
I really have to warn you
I think it's only fair
They await the final hour
As happy as they are sick
Laughing so hysterically
At all those who they've tricked
But then who an I to tell you who to believe in
When all the masks they seem so damn deceiving?
How can I say to you, "You be Free"
That would never bring about mass anarchy
Now, would it?

Patriotism for me is as worse as ANY other extremism ..... love the pic , it says all

Nationalism is an infantile diease, the measles of mankind

It is the proof of a bad cause when it is applauded by the mob.

Interesting piece. I bet you get a lot of comments on it. I must say that although I can't approve of the way the government handled the situation in Iraq, I have read enough to know that the atrocities being committed over there before we went in were horrible. We didn't do anything during the Rwandan genocide and hardly anything during the situation in Somalia. To me it seems far worse to sit by and do nothing. Just my thoughts. Take them as you will.

I really don't see why humans let things like this even escalate to this point.. there is no logic behind it.. no benefits.. its all from greed and hate for other humans... VERY sad... I just truly don't understand why it has to happen...why there is no compassion..

kind of has meaning to me...
especially with all these wars looming over us.. and the potential i could be seeing combat within the next 3 years........ that i am chained to protect my country, that i am to die for it before i could drink, or decide its fate, that i am bound to its freedoms yet my freedoms are illusions. That i am forced to stay in this country because i can not make enough money, nor gain help from it either.....


we are slaves to our nation.... sorry im just a lil angry right now at the government and many wouldnt be surprised hehe... but yes this has so much meaning that one could take.
