Democracy NOW! (Because really, it's just a good idea.)

"So many lies in disguise,
Prompt sighs,
I keep rubbing my eyes at the why's,
They even troubling white guys!
White lies,
Are the sins of omission,
It ain't superstition to understand,
The media's main mission,
Selling you it's alright,
So you don't put up a fight,
Don't want you too bright,
Or boycotts are in sight,
I caught,
The Red-light,
Of a sniper-sight,
Aimed at my chest,
They wanna test the blessed?
My smart friends are stressed?
How'd we all get messed?
Up in our own spots?
Thank God shortie connects the dots..."

"I can't see,
I can't see,
I can't see, no more,
What's war for?
Do we even know anymore?
Can't bear to see the pictures,
Can't bear to read the scriptures,
Can't bear to hear the victims cries,
So lies become fixtures,
Everywhere in the world,
So many dare to unfurl,
The mysteries of history,
That make us all hurl,
Got my Superman curl,
It covers my third eye,
But only just enough,
To make me think I can fly..."

(sigh)

(and now i'm fighting with blogger.com to load a great picture of Father Jean-Marie Benjamin and a group of Iraqi kids that refused to load. even his own website only loads half of it, and it would've been a nice piece of propaganda to offset the disturbing image of the child above, prove he's been there, and that he's done his homework.)

(i even tried re-naming and re-saving the half-pic, and i'm still waiting... waiting... waiting... for blogger.com to say again they won't load it.)

(and there you have it: censor-sational. the results are below, just check his websites home page to see what i'm talking about.)

(i've spent enough time on the internet to know this crap is turning into a pattern, and even a Google Search of "Black Krishna" no longer turns up a listing for the archive.org free download of "Martial Law 911: Rise of the Police State" despite Google still listing a far less popular review of mine from the same site...)
