Comment:
The songs should speak for themselves, but these three quotes just scream to be heard: 1. "I trust God speaks through me. Without that, I couldn't do my job." 2. "Yet we do know that God has placed us together in this moment to kill together." 3. "I believe God decides who goes to heaven, not just George W. Bush." Enjoy.Feedback:
echoing your sentiments 100%. This is a great one.
Effin hell! Be afraid be very afraid,knew he was a mad bastard but Jesus Christ not that mad. As the esteemed Jock just said, "This is a great one."
no matter who it is, it's ironic that "love thy neighbor as thyself" only applies "sometimes" and "depending on whom"....check out Mark Twains "War Prayer". Very good, as is the sentiment of this mix!!!
....Mhhhh ( !!!! )

Beautiful. My new favorite news has been the evangelicals' widespread belief that god actually intervened in this election to pick W. There's something truly remarkable about that level of blind idiot faith. I mean sure - god has no time to help out with the Holocaust, Sudan or any other genocide, or even the filming of a Disney movie -- but somehow he has time to campaign for Bush. Which leads one to the possible conclusions that either god is a complete moron or maybe, just maybe, this whole god business is a fairy tale. Now mind you, i wouldn't want to call god a moron - so i went over to the fairy tale side many years ago. And he's not even a very good fairy tale - Grimm tells much better stories.
Thanks for the comments.
By the way, in my rush to show how much of an arrogant godless jerk I am (trying to beat GABlabs to the punch here), I forgot to mention how many of these songs I love -- especially Elvis, Skip, Dylan and Waits. Nice job all around.
Nice mix. Great stuff here.
Yes, very nice mix and sentiments to match. Really like the Chris Whitley picks.
