IRAQ War II You see them protesting in the street
Lucky for them they are in the land of the free.
Protesting a war is their right,
You have to wonder, for their freedom
Would they fight?
They are the same ones that fights
For a woman’s right to choose.
I guess since the child isn’t born
Its rights are okay to lose.
These actors and actresses,
Think we shouldn’t be in Iraq,
Hell, half of them don’t have the brains
To spell it, let alone find their way there and back.
They wouldn’t have an original thought in their head,
I wonder if Saddam wrote the scripts they said.
I support the right to protest against war,
But once the troops are committed,
Katie bar the door.
Right or wrong you fall in line,
For our young men and women
We have to be behind.
If you can not accept that in your heart,
You are in the land of the free,
You can depart.
I guess what I am trying to say
And being very devout,
Is “put your heart in or get your ass out.”
Many forget that one can protest the reasons for war but still support the soldiers who have the honor to fight it. It is unfortunate the same cannot be said about the leaders of the United States.
How are you free when you are being influenced by the right wing, warhawk, fear-induced politics? Are you able to question reason? or do you enjoy going along with a great deception?
I cannot support a government that believes justice is invading a country based on manufactured lies. I cannot support a government that believes it is never wrong.
And I won't support a government and its citizens that scorn their enemies for displaying the beheadings of human beings while in the same instance celebrate the pictures of two brothers with bullet holes in their faces. Evil is the definition of those in power.
And do not make the mistake of thinking the united states is the only free nation in this world.
"To undermine our troops while they are in the field makes you the enemy in my book."
And like the government of the United States, you see it fit to claim your enemies by any reason that may implicate them.
Brainwashed talking of "Hell, half of them don't have brains." Depart! Huh! Only it is the Almighty God with the right to let go and come. Freedom is end war! Not a single drop of blood need to be shed of an American, British or any other in that matter. Put your heart in winning hearts! With love. Pope is not a fool please remember that. Dear friends out of your hell, to feel well in the sunshine on this earth. So that you can keep your flag hoisted up in air with pride.(No death on battlefield no half mast). For a few warmongers the loving Americans cannot afford to die.
Huck,
That was damn good... I think your heart is very much in. We are praying for both sides and their family's... God bless you also for being such a good poet to devote your heart to this...
Peace and Love walks with you

I get so sick of people whining about not fighting and staying out of Iraq. Why don't they remember that WE WERE ATTACKED AT HOME WITHOUT PROVOCATION???............
I'LL ALWAYS FLY MY FLAG HIGH! I've changed my mind about some of my favorite actors because of their stupidity. Good job!
