"The A.N.S.W.E.R., my FRiends..." (To be sung to Bob Dylan's "Blowin' In the Wind")
How many roads must a man walk down before you call him a man? How many Dreams must each Tyrant kill before he's forced outta Power? How many Lives must Dem Socialists kill, before RATZ are forever banned?!!
The A.N.S.W.E.R, my FRiends, is Lib'ralismz DEAD!!! The A.N.S.W.E.R. is fightin' 'gainst RATZ Spin!!
How many Fears must the Networks create before RATZ're quashed by the FRee? How many years can RAT-sheeple persist that Mass-Murder's just peachy- keen?!! How many times can RATZ Hearts trick their Heads, pretending Slick's blacker than me?!
The A.N.S.W.E.R., my FRiends, is helping FReep RATZ pigs, The A.N.S.W.E.R. is blowin' out the Ditz's!!!
How many times must Lib'rals be duped before they will see RATZ LIE? How many victims must Sosh'lists have before Dem Rapists hear OUR cries? How many deaths will it take 'till World knows that Central Bureaucracies are VILE?!!
The A.N.S.W.E.R., my FRiends, is Fightin' 'Gainst RATZ Spin... The A.N.S.W.E.R. is taking down BIDEN. (gettin' outta the UN?!)

"The American Battle Hymn" **Anthem of Operation Noble Eagle** (To be sung to The Battle Hymn of the Republic)
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord; He is trampling out the vintage where grapes of wrath are stored; He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword, His truth is marching on.
CHORUS: Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah! His truth is marching on.
I saw the gleaming towers when the Beast came crashing in; I swore our foes would reap the bitter harvest of their sin; For the light shall conquer darkess and the just will surely win, When God is marching on!
(CHORUS)
Now hear the cries of anguish of the innocents assailed; Recall the fallen rescuers that all mankind has hailed; We'll show those who'd destroy us just how badly they have failed, When we go marching on!
(CHORUS)
We felt the righteous anger as the tragic story broke; I glimpsed the devil's countenance there grinning in the smoke; But the evil have no inkling of the anger they provoke, And we go marching on!
(CHORUS)
The serpents danced in joy at this sad chapter that they wrote; With our warriors upon them we shall see if they still gloat; As now the cry for vengeance springs from every patriot's throat, So we go marching on!
(CHORUS)
The brave Australians quickly swore they'd join us in the ranks; Yes Canada and Britain said "We'll both stand by the Yanks!" And the free men of the future shall forever owe them thanks, Let's all go marching on!
(CHORUS)
I see the quiet anger of the soldier in the field; Until we've won our vict'ry the Marines shall never yield; See our sailors and our airmen and the mighty sword they wield, As one we're marching on!
This song was written by an American servicemen shortly after the attack and is floating around military circles right now. I think we need more like this to bolster public morale and support for our efforts.
Hopefully this song will also do something to bolster the warrior spirit of those who'll be put to the test.

One more time... I should not be here...on my knees... But hey, Mister Prez'dent...Justice means that much to me!! Won'tcha reconsider, Dubyuh... Won't you just INDICT Terry?!
I told ya, Dubyuh... Got yer White House...you got the Power!! Clinton killed them Waco children...Slick left a scar!! Won't ya help us, Prez'dent Dubyuh... Won't you INDICT McAuliffe fer me?! Oh, Mister Prez'dent, please...
Mudboy Slim
John Ashcroft may--nominally--be the one who will actually issue the Indictments necessary to hold Terry McAuliffe accountable for the many crimes he has committed in the name of Bill Clinton and the Democratic National Committee; however, it is obviously President George W. Bush who'll have the final say as to if--and when--this eventuality occurs. I voted for Dubyuh and believe he's done an admirable job in office to date. Still, if he fails to unleash the Powers of Justice upon those who committed rampant crimes in the previous Administration, IMHO, his will go down in history as a failed Presidency for allowing unprecedented Executive Branch Corruption to go unpunished. What a tragedy that would be.
So before all you blindered BushBackers go attackin' me fer undermining a President of whom I think quite highly, please consider how you will defend Dubyuh's inaction in '04 were Ashcroft to fail to do what we all know in our hearts must be done with respect to the Felons of the previous Administration...

Hey Mr. Stone...did I ever tell EWE eye usrdta think I had a future playing professional basketball in the NBA?! Yep...this white boy can jump!! And shoot the hell outta some threes...and I am a MFer on defense...nobody can score on me.
Boy, was I deluded...lol. As a mostly-white, barely Native American dude who topped out at 5'11" in sneakers, I could never quite dunk a fully-inflated regulation basketball, although it was not for a lack of trying. But after dominating and terrorizing recreation leagues from Annandale to West Springfield to Virginia Beach throughout the 1970's, it all culminated in my senior year at Kempsville High School in the 1980-81 school year. It wasn't even a sure thing that I would even make this talented squad of future stars, as my good friend Harris Pezzella was every bit as good as me and wanted that last spot just as much as I did. But we also had Chris Sherrer at point guard, fastest white boy this side of the Mississippi, bar none, Chris was a track star, a rugged defender, great in the fast break, but not much of a scoring threat from outside. Brian Penn was our two guard, and that dude could shoot and make from anywhere, a great athlete with a smooth game, Brian could also play tight D, when motivated. At swing guard/forward we had Michael West, 6'2" blonde Adonis sorta dude with a chiseled jaw to match his chiseled body that the Girls basketball team just drooled over...lol. Mike is a very good dude and had a very solid game with a decent midrange jumper and he always played good D. The there was our volatile, but uber- talented, Todd Black, who was equally adept at both forward positions. Strong on the boards, tough to stop inside, and not a bad shot from long range. At power forward, we had young stud, D.J. Dozier, who eventually was a 5-star RB recruit to Penn State, and after setting some records in Happy Valley, he was a number one pick for the Minnesota Vikings and did all right for a few years, but D.J. could also play baseball (well enough to be drafted) and D.J. was a monster on the offensive boards. For depth inside, we had the twin towers, John and Mark, a pair of 6'5" Batzel brothers born 16 months apart...the younger one went on to set a number of scoring and rebounding records at William and Mary. But our star player was Leroy Shecut, an uber- gifted, 6'8" leaper with a nice shooting touch from midrange and the hops to take it to the hoop and throw it down..We even got a royal visit to practice one day from Clarence BigHouse Gaines, who was interested in Leroy early on. Alas, Leroy was a gentle giant, but never much of a student and his grades made him ineligible after 1 January 1981. We also had me and Mr. Mungo, backup shooting/point guards, mostly mop up duty. I tell folks I was the 10th man in a nine man rotation, except for when someone is sick or injured, then I became the 9th man in a 8-man rotation, then, the 8th man in a 7- man rotation. Thank God injuries never got Ed me to be the 5th man in a 4-man rotation...THAT woulda been embarrassing.

I was actually at my best in Pre-Game Warmups...at home games, it got to be a thing that when I wanted to rain in a long shot from the outside, I would look at my buddies in the stands and holler, "Lloyd!!"
To which my buddies called out, "World BEEEeee..."
And if I drained my patented Rainbow 3-pointer (before there WERE 3-pointers, mind you), then this one particular section of the stands would drunkenly call out in unison, "FREEEEEEeee...!!". And EYE wood Tri- naught 2 grin...MUD

Oh yeah...forgot our coach, Richard "Dick" Ponti, who went on to become the long-time Principal of Kempsville High School. After the season was over, Coach Ponti and his wife had us down to his Beach house down around 72nd Street where the beach road turns into Shore Drive and heads towards First Landing/Seashore State Park. I specifically recall him asking what I was doing the following year, and when I told him I had accepted early admission at the University of Virginia School of Architecture, he looked at me, trying to hide his surprise, and said, "I had no idea you were smart...". I laughed and said "Thankyouverymuch!!"...I never had much use for folks I considered "Brainiacs'...MUD
