Memorial Day
May 26, 2008Fifty-one Caliber Freedom Bird
Memorial Day arouses stark memories
of grim realities,
pushin’ up daisies for all these years,
I still remember,
I still remember.
The way through the corridor of horror
was a low altitude chopper ride,
straight ahead
with wide-eyed stare through M-60-fire
into elephant grass,
Is today a good day to die
on a hot LZ,
for living in this war
is such sleepless straining torture,
Over and over
in continuous psychic loop,
over and over
in big-screen fashion,
Is it a good day to die,
report for your execution,
be a good soldier,
now, and do your duty,
Ah,
the sublime release
of the .51 caliber freedom bird,
taking me away
from all this confusion,
If only I had to die once,
and not over and over
again.

The Real McCain
May 22, 2008Audio
Guest: Cliff Schecter, author of The Real McCain: Why Conservatives Don’t Trust Him and Why Independents Shouldn’t
Who Should Marry? Who Should Decide?
May 21, 2008Audio
Today I take on perhaps my most right-wing fundamentalist guest yet: Bruce Hawkins, a “highly skilled political strategist” for the three most Radical Right-Wing candidates ever to run for President: Pat Robertson, Pat Buchanan, and Mike Huckabee.
I encourage everyone to call in and join in the debate.
Please let my guest know that substantial parts of America still believe that equal rights for all should prevail over his vision of a Taliban-like theocracy where the Government dictates religion and marriage partners for all.
