An American Prayer…

August 22, 2008 · Posted in Barack Obama, Election 2008 · 3 Comments 

…reminding us all of the fierce urgency of NOW:

Dave Stewart explains his reasons for writing the song:

People long for a connection– whether it is to music, to their country, or to a big idea. Regardless of what happens in November, Senator Obama has reminded millions of people that they have the power to connect to bigger ideas. He is, in essence, the embodiment of a new anthem for change. He has continued King’s narrative from what was once thought of as a dream to a reality. I find it especially relevant that Barack Obama will accept the Democratic Party Nomination for President 45 years to the day of King’s “I Have a Dream” speech.

Lyrics:

This is my American Prayer
This is my American Prayer

This is the time to finish what you started
And this is no time to dream
This is the room
We can turn off the dark tonight
Maybe then we might see

American Prayer
American Prayer

And this is the ground
That keeps our feet from getting wet
And this is the sky over our head
And what you see depends on where you stand
And how you jump will tell you where you’re gonna land

American Prayer
American Prayer

My oh my
Couldn’t get much higher
Lets not kick out the darkness
Make the lights brighter

And these are the hands
What are we gonna build with them?
This is the church you can’t see
Give me your tired, your poor and huddled masses
You know they’re yearning to breathe free
This is my American Prayer
American Prayer
American Prayer

When you get to the top of the mountain
Will you tell me what you see
If you get to the top of the mountain
Remember me

iPeachment ’08 – Impeachment for the 21st Century

June 10, 2008 · Posted in Bush Administration · Comments Off 

Yes, it took Dennis Kucinich 5 or so hours to read the litany of Bush crimes into the Congressional record yesterday but really, is that so bad? Evidently so, since news broadcast editors have decided it’s far too banal to mention or even discuss on those television news shows everyone watches to get informed. But what if they were presented in 45-second YouTube bullets, just enough to accommodate the Attention Deficit Disorder set while maybe, just maybe, making them afraid, very afraid of the men who made them very afraid?

Here’s something to start the trend. Pass it on to your friendly George Bush apologist and see what he or she thinks. After all, it’s only fitting that the architect of the Culture of Fear also be the one we fear.

Here are the articles of impeachment in convenient, wallet-sized text bullets.

“Barackapella”

May 30, 2008 · Posted in Election 2008 · Comments Off 

A group of young singers, some of whom have simply wonderful voices, do “Yes, We Can”, a capella. Inspiring to see them put this together and perform it. The audio is a bit rough, but it’s worth the watch.
