Home Land Security

I watch on t.v. and listion on the radio; The President claims victory, 
yet we contenue to place our young men six feet below. Thus he claims to be the 
hero. For most of mankind has only one thing in mind. Look into the eyes of the 
spineless politician and there you will find, their lust for war. The question still 
remains, why do they always send the poor?

Anouther bombing has struck the land many dead from a terrorist's hand. When 
are you going to open your eyes, and make your stand? The loss placed on the 
sea of glass. For the Lord God has noticed the evil, for this must come to pass...

This heavy unrelenting down pouring rain seems to hide these bitter tears of 
pain. The loss of all freedom will drive most insane. The government has and 
will contenue to lie. The reason they send our young men over seas to die.
This government is taking the rights away from you and me, in the name of best 
interest and homeland security.
