If there is a ground zero in the cultural wars, it is Missouri, a state where pro-life groups are strong and well organized and their agenda dominates local politics.

About 25 years ago, I started out as a reporter covering politics. And that sort of just evolved into organized crime, because organized crime and politics were the same thing in Boston.

I went to the local schools, the local state primary school, and then to the local grammar school. A secondary school, which technically was an independent school, it was not part of the state educational system.
I never, in all my life, had anything whatever to do with robbing any bank in the state of Missouri.

Look away, you rollin river
Oh, shenandoah, I long to hear you
Look away. were bound away
Across the wide missouri
Now the missouri is a mighty river
Look away, you rollin river.
Indians camp along her border
Look away. were bound away
Across the wide missouri
Well a white man loved an indian maiden
Look away, you rollin river
With notions his canoe was laden
Look away, were bound away
Across the wide missouri
Oh shenandoah, I love your daughter
Look away, you rollin river
It was for her Id cross the water.
Look away, were bound away
Across the wide missouri
For seven long years I courted sally
Look away, you rollin river
Seven more years I longed to have her
Look away, were bound away
Across the wide missouri
Well, its fare-thee-well, my dear,
Im bound to leave you
Look away you rollin river
Shenandoah, I will not deceive you
Look away, were bound away

The Un and Us Election Nov 2nd,2012
The offensive UN wants to monitor the US election,
They have little groups that may want to make corrections,
They are mostly from dictatorships where bent elections are the norm,
And now they want the US democracy to conform.
They were established to more or less keep peace in the world,
They don't seem to do anything anywhere except in their underworld,
Can't stop those Near-East religious wars or organized crime,
How long have they been doing this? - An awful long time.
Could that UN glass building in New York be closed down?
For at least for a couple of years till they come back around?
They have become a form of madness that we can't recognize,
We have to be politically correct and cannot Americanize.

Politics What I Understand
Politics is: process of transfer
to the politicians, of public power;
Science of public reigning
and government running;
Formulation of regulation and policy
to apply on, and reign the public
leaving escape door for them
and those who overwhelm;
Keeping nearest groups satisfied
and other groups pacified;
Seeing public in difficulty
being apathy but showing sympathy;
Politically remove all those
In way of their whim who arose:
To show malign image of opposition party
and join their dinner party;
This is what I could understand
Politics is like tusks of elephant.

As Long As Hypocrisy Is Not Mentioned
Is there really a difference between,
Organized crime...
And organized religion?
On the various levels both are allowed,
To exist and is permitted?
'Yes there is.
One is openly afflilated to politics.
And the other declares not to be,
As long as endorsements are made...
Indirectly,
By those who use their associations...
To run for political office.'
So there is no difference?
'Well..
Technically no.
However...
As long as hypocrisy is not mentioned,
And one's faith in democracy is declared...
Anything,
If one notices...
Is thoroughly acceptable.'

I think he was absolutely right not to go to UN last week... First things first - that is, values and people here in their local communities, and remembering all politics is local, and trusting people more.

Injectıon Sıtes
Organized groups have taken over countries in the past,
And left most ordinary people completely silent and aghast,
Is it possible that this is happening in Canada now?
As they implement injection sites for drug addicts somehow?
Of course they say it’s a health issue and they only want to help,
Therefore our politicians are silent and never scream or yelp,
Our Supreme Court decisions seem to have a secret agenda,
Seems like slanted politically correct propaganda.
No death with dignity as in the Sue Rodriguez case,
High court decisions are not accepted as wrong or a disgrace,
Their abortion clinics allowed where the unborn babies are killed,
And now injection sites where the Health System will be billed.

The Game of Mistrust
I am tired of your childish wars,
Israel and Palestine!
I am tired of your violent politics
in the pretext of self-defense!
Nothing is won in your wars
except the loss of innocents!
Nothing is gained by your wars
except the rising hatred
from both your sides!
Nothing is won by
your game of mistrust
except the stain of screaming blood
in both your hands!
