Three Years In
George and Dick tell us things are fine
(not really, ask Cindy Sheehan)
Democracy is on the march
(though the wrong party won)
The insurgency is on its last legs
(but growing stronger every day)
Average Iraqis are better off
(except they can’t leave their homes for fear of getting killed)
That our sacrifice in youth and blood and money is worth it
(how so?)
And all we need do is resolve to stay the course
(how long, how many dead?)
This is the fog of war
The fog of denial
The fog of fantasy
The fog of arrogance
This is our leaders out of touch
Out of common sense
Out of common decency
Committing folly in our name
I’m not down with that
Are you?
