Think for yourself. Question authority. Throughout human history, as our ignorant species has faced the frightening uncertainty... the terrorizing fact that we do not know, who we are, or where we are going, in this ocean of chaos, it has been the authorities - the political, the religious, the educational - who attempt to conform and comfort us by giving us order, rules, regulations, commandments... their biased view of reality - of what is right and what is wrong...
To think for yourself is to question everything you have come to accept. You must put yourself in a state of vulnerable open-mindedness... You must be free.

When the President Talks to God
When the President talks to God,
Are the conversations brief or long?
Does he ask to to rape our women's rights?
And send poor farm kids off to die?
Does God suggest an oil hike?
When the President talks to God?
When the President talks to God,
Are the consonants all hard or soft?
Is he resolute on down the line?
Is every issue black or white?
Does what God say ever change his mind?
When the President talks to God?
When the President talks to God,
Does he fake that drawl or merely nod?
Agree which convicts should be killed?
Where prisons should be built and filled?
Which voter fraud must be concealed?
When the President talks to God?
When the President talks to God,
I wonder which one plays the better cop?
"We should find some jobs the ghetto's broke",
"No they're lazy George I say we don't,
Just give em' more liquor stores and dirty coke",
That's what God recommends.
When the President talks to God,
Do they drink near beer and go play golf?
While they pick which countries to invade,
Which Muslim souls still can be saved?
I guess God just calls a spade a spade,
When the President talks to God?
When the President talks to God,
Does he ever think that maybe He's not?
That that voice is just inside his head?
When he kneels next to the Presidential bed,
Does he ever smell his own bullshit?
When the President talks to God?
Greetings young grasshopper.............. This much anticipated blog has been created for our mutual entertainment - but mostly mine.
I am a young, cynical lad with too much time on my hands and too many thoughts in my head.
In order to waste my days and share my wisedom with the world - through daily rants, news, reviews, stories - I have composed this amazing blog.
I take myself seriously but that doesn't mean you must - thus, NO FUCKING HATE MAIL... cause I need inner peace, not your negative vibes wreaking havoc on my mind.
Please be patient because greatness takes time and there is much work to be done.
PEACE

PAIN IS AN ILLUSION OF THE SENSES, DESPAIR IS AN ILLUSION OF THE MIND
LIFE IS A TRAGEDY FOR THOSE WHO FEEL & A COMEDY FOR THOSE WHO THINK BE YOURSELF - for those that mind, don't matter & those that matter, don't mind - Dr. Suess
Imagine there's no countries,
It isn't hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace...
