Who Told You These Things?
There is a very moving and intelligent article over at thisisby.us that I think everyone should read. It, um, asks some very interesting questions.
“Who told you this?” I began. “Who told you supporting our troops meant supporting endless war; that disagreeing with our administration’s policies meant turning my back on my country? Who told you that I have to follow our President into the pits of a hell of our own making, never questioning the course though my heart and head scream for sanity? As for our fighting men and women, who told you I’ve no compassion for their sacrifice or respect for their service? As I beg my elected representatives to bring them home, so they might be safe until the day a war of choice becomes a war of necessity – who told you that makes me a traitor?
B are discussing.

*in robot voice* I too have been told these things by the Fox News Channel. Not liking war and president is bad.

it’s not like songs haven’t been written about this as well. Check out the song “They” by Jem (no really) and tell me you aren’t tapping along with it as you get creeped out.
