My thoughts on Bowling for Colombine

* Conservatives/Repubulicans are always talking about how liberal Michael Moore is etc. However, it was interesting to see that Moore put in a lot of negative thoughts on Clinton

* Hands down the creepiest part of the movie was seeing Terry McNicholos brother and how absolutely crazy he is and how not only he is a free man, but a free man with a lot of weapons.

* How can so many people (i.e. the NRA) be so passionate about owning guns. Open your fucking eyes and look around you at injustices and yet your biggest concern is wether you can own a GUN? As a woman you earn less then a man simply because you have a vagina? But yet you are going to spend your time and energy campaigning about and celebrating gun ownership?

*The best scene of the movie was when they showed clips of all these US invasions while playing "It's a Wonderful World".

Rock on Indigo Girls (and Pink)

I heard this song on "radio with a twist" (the gay sydicated radio show) and I think it's awesome.


Dear Mr. President
Come take a walk with me
Let's pretend we're just two people and
You're not better than me
I'd like to ask you some questions if we can speak honestly

What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street
Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep
What do you feel when you look in the mirror
Are you proud

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye
How do you walk with your head held high
Can you even look me in the eye
And tell me why

Dear Mr. President
Were you a lonely boy
Are you a lonely boy
Are you a lonely boy
How can you say
No child is left behind
We're not dumb and we're not blind
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pay the road to hell

What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye
How do you walk with your head held high
Can you even look me in the eye

Let me tell you bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you bout hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
Oh

How do you sleep at night
How do you walk with your head held high
Dear Mr. President
You'd never take a walk with me
Would you?
