The Girlie-Man Song

This song is done to the music of "Macho Man" by the Village People, for those of you old enough to remember that. It is dedicated to President George Bush and Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger (sorry about the spelling; I'm sure it's not right).

Army...got to build my army
Army...such a thrill my army
Army...wanna join my army?
Check it out my army, army
Don't you doubt my army, army
Talkin' bout my army, army
Check it out my army

The USA don't want to be no girlie girlie man
We're gonna get those terrorists...any way we can
Shoot 'em in the mornings, go man go
Take over every country; our nukes they glow
You can best believe, we ain't no girlie man
We're gonnna get those terrorists, anyway we can

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Girlie girlie man
We don't want to be...no girlie man
Girlie girlie man
We don't want to be no girlie!!

Girlie girlie man
We don't want to be...no girlie man
Girlie girlie man
We don't want to be no girlie!!

Army, it's so hot, my army
Army, you can't top my army
Army, love to use my army
Army, don't you tease my army
Army, you'll adore my army
Army, come and join my army
Army, made by God my army
Army, it's so good my army

We're not gonna be no girlie girlie man
To live a life of freedom, we've gotta take a stand
To spread our own lifestyle and ideals
Posess the strength and confidence, that's what's real
You can best believe, we aint no girlie man
Gonna get those terrorists...any way we can

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Girlie girlie man
We don't want to be...no girlie man
Girlie girlie man
We don't want to be no girlie!!

Girlie girlie man
We don't want to be...no girlie man
Girlie girlie man

Girlie girlie man

Girlie girlie man
We don't want to be...no girlie man
Girlie girlie man
We don't want to be no girlie!! HEY!

What do these terrorists think they are accomplishing

The recent terrorist attack at the school in southern Russia has gotten me to wondering....just what are these people (the terrorists) trying to accomplish? Do they think that the random killing of innocent people will scare us into doing their will? Do they think that we will feel compassion and forgiveness for them and that we will try to see their side of things?

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

While there may be a few who are scared (indeed, terrorized) into changing their thoughts and actions, most of us are not. While a few have tried to figure out the hate and rage that goes into these terrorist actions, most simply see them as the killing of innocent people. In fact, the killing of the innocent school children in Russia has probably turned more people against terrorists than anything. I can understand hate and rage. I have felt it, as mentioned in some previous posts, but I have never actually gone out and killed innocent (or for that matter, guilty) people.

This war against the terrorists is unlike any previous wars. They do not attack armies or military installations. Instead, they attack innocent people in their homes, schools or workplaces. This makes them cold-blooded murderers, not soldiers. Their actions do not further their cause one iota, as far as I am concerned. Instead, I, and a I am sure the majority of other people, look upon them as ruthless, murdering savages. I wonder if they think about this when they plan their attacks.
