5. Thank You Thank You Thank You

That was a beautiful song and video. This sums up how I have felt at times.

:patriot:

[SammyWinstonJack]

9. It should sum up how we all feel!

What is wrong with people who support this war and this immoral regime? Why can't they see what we see?

Ian Rhett -- :yourock:

[helderheid]

56. thrilled my link worked!!!

[samdogmom]

12. WOW! (If this was Am. Bandstand...A 10--You can dance to it!)

I'm getting a copy. I have a great library of anti-Bush and anti-war music. It's growing by leaps and bounds!

[SammyWinstonJack]

13. rofl!

Welcome to DU! :hi:

[samdogmom]

14. Thanks!

I just bought my copy. I play my "music" every chance I can get--especially to captive Republicans and war boosters. This one is going in the car for my many carpool runs. Even 13 year olds have ears!

[SammyWinstonJack]

15. 13 year olds are our future!

They need to hear this and watch the video! Thanks for educating our youth!

[samdogmom]

16. That's my thought!

They can't help that right now that they're brainwashed by their parents. I'm the carpool lady so it's my contribution to the cause. (Maybe more should try this?) I only play anti-Bush, anti-war music when you ride with me. Too bad if you like something different. I just turn up the volume and ignore the protests from the back seat. (Although, kids are remarkably docile--generally they are too timid to say anything. Is this a new tactic for us????)

It's particularly great when my daughter starts singing along to the music. Then they feel like they're missing something. We've made many CD purchase recommendations. (Believe me, it feels great!)

[SammyWinstonJack]

25. Let me just say that

:yourock:

[SammyWinstonJack]

26. Let me just say that

All of the artists on my list plus hundreds more have tried TO MAKE A POINT with music. It's great when one succeeds! But, how about these that don't get mainstream play? Their message is no less important! Let's kick this post and give an artist a chance!

27. Pipe leaking?

You waiting for a plumber? That sucks! Wish there was someone to wait for the flood to stop for you while you went to see Ian.

[helderheid]

29. thanks - garbage disposal. I'm helping my husband

though mostly through moral support and the occasional dumping of the bucket. *sigh*. I'm hoping we can get him to come back for our annual 9/11 event.
