Perhaps what irritates the conservatives most is Dean was trying to woo the support of white southerners with the Confederate flags on the back of their pickup trucks.
Paranoia strikes deep Into your life it will creep It starts when you're always afraid You step out of line, the man come and take you away We better stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down
In fact! That's a GREAT song! I loves me some Buffalo Springfield! There's something happening here What it is ain't exactly clear There's a man with a gun over there Telling me I got to beware I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down There's battle lines being drawn Nobody's right if everybody's wrong Young people speaking their minds Getting so much resistance from behind I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down What a field-day for the heat A thousand people in the street Singing songs and carrying signs Mostly say, hooray for our side It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Paranoia strikes deep Into your life it will creep It starts when you're always afraid You step out of line, the man come and take you away We better stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, now, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down
Out of my mind And I just can't take it anymore Left behind By myself and what I'm living for All I hear are screams from outside the limousines That are taking me Out of my mind Through the keyhole in an open door Happy to find That I don't know what I'm smiling for Tired of hanging on, If you've missed me, I've just gone Cause they're taking me Out of my mind Out of my mind And I just can't take it anymore Left behind By myself and what I'm living for All I hear are screams from outside the limousines That are taking me Out of my mind
For what's it's worth, I saw them open a three group concert in Houston around... '67?? Jefferson Airplane was touring for Surrealistic Pillow, and second billing was taken by Strawberry Alarm Clock, when Incense and Peppermints was out. Both Springfield and Airplane were great, really superb, and Alarm Clock was surprisingly good as well. This was probably around a 3 hour concert, including breaks between bands to set up. Good times. edit: music transcends everything... Keep D&D Civil!!
sounds like an awesome concert, and certainly the opening line of "Somebody to Love" is appropriate to this thread!
When the truth is found to be lies and all the joy within you dies don't you want somebody to love don't you need somebody to love wouldn't you love somebody to love you better find somebody to love basso, irony abounds! Keep D&D Civil!!
yes indeedy... One morning I woke up and I knew You were really gone A new day, a new way, and new eyes to see the dawn Go your way, I'll go mine and Carry on The sky is clearing and the night Has gone out The sun, he come, the world is all full of light Rejoice, rejoice, we have no choice but To carry on The fortunes of fables are able To sing the song Now witness the quickness with which We get along To sing the blues you've got to live the tunes and Carry on
If you walk away, I'll walk away First tell me which road you will take I don't want to risk our paths crossing some day So you walk that way, I'll walk this way And the future hangs over our heads And it moves with each current event Until it falls all around like a cold steady rain Just stay in when it's looking this way And the moon's laying low in the sky Forcing everything metal to shine And the sidewalk holds diamonds like the jewelry store case They argue walk this way, now walk this way And Laura's asleep in my bed As I'm leaving she wakes up and says I dreamed you were carried away on the crest of a wave Baby don't go away, come here And there's kids playing guns in the street And ones pointing his tree branch at me So I put my hands up I say enough is enough, If you walk away, I'll walk away And he shot me dead I found a liquid cure From my landlocked blues It'll pass away like a slow parade It's leaving but I don't know how soon And the world's got me dizzy again You think after 22 years I'd be used to the spin And it only feels worse when I stay in one place So I'm always pacing around or walking away I keep drinking the ink from my pen And I'm balancing history books up on my head But it all boils down to one quotable phrase If you love something, give it away A good woman will pick you apart A box full of suggestions for your possible heart But you may be offended and you may be afraid But don't walk away, don't walk away We made love on the living room floor With the noise in background of a televised war And in the deafening pleasure I thought I heard someone say ìIf we walk away, theyíll walk away But greed is a bottomless pit And our freedom's a joke We're just taking a piss And the whole world must watch the sad comic display If you're still free start running away Cause we're coming for you! I've grown tired of holding this post I feel more like a stranger each time I come home So I'm making a deal with the devils of faith Saying let me walk away, please You'll be free child once you have died From the shackles of language and immeasurable time And then we can trade places, play musical grace Till then walk away, walk away So I'm up at dawn Putting on my shoes I just want to make a clean escape Iím leaving but I don't know where to I know Iím leaving but I don't know where to
And I need you now tonight And I need you more than ever And if you'll only hold me tight We'll be holding on forever And we'll only be making it right Cause we'll never be wrong together We can take it to the end of the line Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks I really need you tonight Forever's gonna start tonight Forever's gonna start tonight Once upon a time I was falling in love But now I'm only falling apart Nothing I can do A total eclipse of the heart Once upon a time there was light in my life But now there's only love in the dark Nothing I can say A total eclipse of the heart Turn around bright eyes Turn around bright eyes Turn around
The Bush junta must really be getting scared of what Fitzgerald might be uncovering in his investigation. Now the WH has ordered Sen. Roberts of Kansas (chair of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence) to investigate, not the manipulation of prewar intelligence (as he promised would happen before the 2004 election and has now decided that there isn't time to do so), the Niger forgeries or the Plame disclosure, but to investigate Fitzgerald himself and his investigation. And there is now talk that AG Gonzales might fire Fitzgerald before he concludes his investigation.
Are you serious? Was this speculation on the part of some journalists? Did it come from whitehouse sources that they were thinking of firing Fitzgerald? What a horrible abuse of power by the whitehouse. The scary thing is that they could probably get away with that kind of totalitarian move, and not many would notice. I don't know what evidence Fitzgerald has and doesn't have, but it has been enough convince a number of federal judges to move the case along.
link, or is this just something you overheard your cabby "discussing" with the nice folks at air america on your ride to work?
I take the subway! The conversations are much better... http://www.boston.com/news/politics...ess_plans_to_scrutinize_plame_related_issues/
