Bhutto killings remind us of our blessings

by: HAP

Gandhi, the Kennedy's, MLK, Sadat, Rabin, now Bhutto--so many good people have been taken by fanatics, who try with depressing success to stop progress. Around the world, it is much easier to smash things and people than it is to accomplish positive change. Unless we find more creative ways to stop the politics of rage, we will be consumed by it.

Today's atrocity in Pakistan should remind us how blessed we are to have inherited a stable and prosperous nation that is generally spared from political violence. We should never take that for granted. I hope our next president will be more successful than President Bush in bringing our nation together during this difficult period of our national life.

Riots in Pakistan, Props to the Hippies. (0.00 / 0)
Why don't Americans ever take to the streets?

7 Years of Bush/Cheney and nothing.

Yet, we go beserk when a sports team is either victorious or not.

Maybe Bresler has a point about the 60's.

Americans have been bought into silent complicity. :_(

Sabotage
I Can't Stand It I Know You Planned It
But I'm Gonna Set It Straight, This Watergate
I Can't Stand Rocking When I'm In Here
Because Your Crystal Ball Ain't So Crystal Clear
So While You Sit Back And Wonder Why
I Got This Fucking Thorn In My Side
Oh My God, It's A Mirage
I'm Tellin' Y'all It's Sabotage

Su,Su,Su, So Listen Up 'Cause You Can't Say Nothin'
You'll Shut Me Down With A Push Of Your Button
But I'm Out And I'm Gone
I'll Tell You Now I Keep It On And On

"Cause What You See You Might Not Get
And We Can Bet So Don't You Get Souped Yet
You're Scheming On A Thing That's A Mirage
I'm Trying To Tell You Now It's Sabotage
Why; Our Backs Are Now Against The Wall
Listen All Of Y'all It's A Sabotage
Listen All Of Y'all It's A Sabotage
Listen All Of Y'all It's A Sabotage

I Can't Stand It, I Know You Planned It
But I'm Gonna Set It Straight This Watergate
I Can't Stand Rockin' When I'm In This Place
Because I Feel Disgrace Because You're All In My Face
But Make No Mistakes And Switch Up My Channel
I'm Buddy Rich When I Fly Off The Handle
What Could It Be, It's A Mirage
You're Scheming On A Thing; That's Sabotage

have you ever heard (0.00 / 0)
the tape of Buddy flying off the hnadle ?
One of the greatest disses of all time...he rips the band on the bus for playing clams(wrong notes)
paraphrase...if you guys wanna stay on the bus all day and smoke that shit, and then get up on the stand and clam you'll be driving a bus in Las Vegas...(it goes on and on) ranks up there with Tommy Lasorda yanking a pitcher and ripping him on the mound picked by mic telling him to go f himself

by the way I met Vinnie once, he plays with Scofiled, and my friend Neil sometimes- Zappa discovered him...7 rhythms at once...
