Pentagon Announces September 11-Iraqapalooza!! |

http://dailykos.com/story/2005/8/10/14122/1220Pentagon Announces September 11-Iraqapalooza!! by pontificator Tue Aug 9th, 2005 at 22:41:22 PDT Bush's ratings are in the toilet, and Karl Rove can't resist milking 9/11 for political gain one more time:
pontificator's diary :: ::
The Pentagon would hold a massive march and country music concert to mark the fourth anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks, US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said in an announcement tucked into an Iraq war briefing today.
Word of the event startled some observers.
"I've never heard of such a thing," said John Pike, who has been a defence analyst in Washington for 25 years and runs GlobalSecurity.org.
The news also reignited debate and anger over linking September 11 with the war in Iraq.
"That piece of it is disturbing since we all know now there was no connection," said Paul Rieckhoff, an Iraq veteran who heads Operation Truth, an anti-administration military booster.
Rumsfeld's march had some relatives of September 11 victims fuming.
"How about telling Mr Rumsfeld to leave the memories of September 11 victims to the families?" said Monica Gabrielle, who lost her husband in the attacks.
Remember, this pathetically inappropriate and frankly embarassing piece of political propaganda -- which you know will link September 11 and Iraq -- is being paid for with our tax dollars. I'm sure it will get glowing press coverage from Armstrong Williams.
- Here are Clint's lyrics to "IRAQ AND ROLL"
You can wave your signs in protest Against America taking stands The stands America's taken Are the reason that you can
If everyone would go for peace There'd be no need for war But we can't ignore the devil He'll keep coming back for more
Some see this in black and white Others only gray But we're not begging for a fight No matter what they say
We've got the resolution That should put 'em all to shame But it's a different kind of deadline When I'm called in the game
Chorus I RAQ, I Rack'em up and I ROLL I'm back and I'm a high tech G.I. Joe I pray for peace and prepare for war and I never will forget There's no price too high for freedom so be careful where you tread
The terror isn't man to man They can be no more than cowards If they won't show us their weapons We might have to show them ours
It might be a smart bomb, They find stupid people too If you stand with the likes of Saddam One just might find you
Chorus II I ROCK, I RACK'EM UP AND I ROLL I'm back and I'm a high tech G.I. Joe I got infrared, gps and good old fasnioned lead No price too high for freedom Be careful where you tread
Bridge Now you can come along Or you can stay behind Or you can get out of the way But our troops take out the garbage For the Good old U.S.A.
I ROCK, I RACK'EM UP AND I ROLL In the USA I ROCK, I RACK'EM UP AND I ROLL I'm talkin' about the USA

-- Here are my lyrics to "IRAN BECUZ IM A CHICKENHAWK"
You can wave your signs in protest Against America taking stands But the fact really is The right wingers don't give a damn
If everyone would go along with Bush His poll numbers would stop falling And they wouldn't have to keep on Scaring Americans shitless (sorry, can't rhyme LOL)
I don't intend to fight no war Cause I'm a spineless coward I can't imagine not eating my cornflakes And taking my daily shower
Some see this in red and blue Some see this in gray But if you don't support the Republicans (yeah yeah yeah) Then you must be gay
We've got the resolution That should put 'em all to shame But it's a different kind of deadline When I'm called in the game
Chorus I RAN, I Ran away from war (cause I'm a chickenhawk) I'm such a damn, little chickenhawk I pray that there's no draft, that I don't have to go fight Cause I would shit my pants Cause I'm a stupid redneck dittohead
The terror isn't man to man And I'm a stupid coward If they won't show us their weapons that don't exist Let's just show em ours
It might be a smart bomb, They find them muslims too If you stand with the likes of Saddam Bin Laden Ahmadinejad One just might find you
Chorus II I RAN, I Ran away from war (cause I'm a chickenhawk) I'm such a damn, little chickenhawk I pray that there's no draft, that I don't have to go fight Cause I would shit my pants Cause I'm a stupid redneck dittohead
Bridge Now you can come along Or you can stay behind like the coward That is in me But our troops take out the garbage For the Good old G.O.P
I RAN, I Ran away from war (cause I'm a chickenhawk) I RAN, I Ran away from war (cause I'm a chickenhawk) In the good ole GOP
(sorry, needs some polishing)

2. Sounds like a prime target for terrorism to me. |
|
Or maybe a nice peaceful protest regarding the politicization of 9/11

5. Holy Shit--I wasted all that effort yesterday bitching about "Arlington" |
|
As awful as Trace Adkins song really is, it's nothing compared to this one. And when taken in the larger context "Iraq and Roll" falls to the level of permanent national obscenity.

The tremendous mileage republicans got after september 11th. They count their lucky stars every day that thousands of americans died on that day. They will sing hallelujah.
