Regime Leader At LeJeune

In April the regime 'president' went to Camp LeJeune..

only at military bases is he assured of

a friendly crowd..



and our memories echo with another LeJeune..

when marines were sent by sergeants

.. into mud in which they drowned



about which Pete Seeger sang



" waist deep in the Big Muddy and the Big Fool

says to push on"



Bush has gone to military bases in Philadelphia and Florida

as well.. where he is shielded from the vast majority

of Americans who oppose his murdering others in our name



God.. take out of power this unelected man.. give him

good miracles of transformation.. give us all miracles

of transformation..

turn around our marines..

that they come out of harm's way



Bring them home from Korea and Afghanistan

Germany and Japan

and all the other places that the pawns of the imperial

America are stationed.
