No Woman, No Cry - (For Willowtree)

No Woman, No Cry
Bob Marley

No woman, no cry, No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry, No woman, no cry

Said I remember when we used to sit,
In the government yard in Trenchtown
Observing the hypocrites,
And they would mingle with the good people we'd meet,
Good friends we have, oh good friends we've lost
Along the way, yeah
In this great future, you can't forget your past
So dry your tears, I say

No woman, no cry, No woman, no cry
Here little darlin', don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
Said I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown,
And then Georgie would make the fire light
And it was, logwood burnin' through the night,
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you,
My feet is my only carriage
And so I've got to push on through
But while I'm gone,

Everything's gonna be all right! Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right, Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right-a! Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right, yeah! Everything's gonna be all right!

So, woman no cry, No woman, no cry
O' my little sister, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry

I remember when we used to sit,
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire light
And it was, logwood burnin' through the night,
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I've got to push on through
But while I'm gone,

No woman, no cry, No woman, no cry
Oh my little darlin', say don't shed no tears
Little darlin', don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
Little sister, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry

Never My Love

Never My Love
The Association

You ask me if there'll come a time
When I grow tired of you
Never my love, never my love
You wonder if this heart of mine
Will lose its desire for you
Never my love, never my love
What makes you think love will end
When you know that my whole life depends
On you

Never my love, never my love

You say you fear I'll change my mind
That I won't require you
Never my love, never my love
How can you think love will end
When I've asked you to spend your whole life with me?


Never my love, never my love
Never my love, never my love

Uh Oh, Alberto!

What's he sayin', anything?

Very late on Friday (bad White House news is always released on late Friday afternoons in order to minimize the impact of it on the news cycle) it was reported that Abu Gonzalez, whose legal work was significant in what led to Abu Ghraib as well as the ongoing Guantanamo situation, approved the firing of the 8 Justice Department prosecutors who were either in the midst of investigating the nefarious deeds of the Bush Admin. and its allies, or in some cases would not play along with directives to go after Democrat targets as they were directed to. This seems big, because Alberto has already denied playing any direct role in this latest of the oh so many Bush Admin. fiascos. He has said, at least prior to now, that he would not resign, and Bush has already given him, "...my strongest backing - heh, heh. I like Alber-toe. He's a fine 'Merican, even if he is a Mexican - heh, heh", or something to that effect. I just can't see how he can weather this though, if the documents in question pertaining to the meeting in which the approvals occurred are thoroughly vetted. It seems almost incontrovertible, at this point.

It feels like the beginnings of Watergate all over again. Starting oh so slowly, but building, building... until no more amount of marketing tactics or propaganda can cover the naked truths now beginning to come to the light of day. Rumsfeld, Scooty, Alberto... it's all unraveling, isn't it?

Iran, I'd say you'd best be feelin' a little nervous, right about now.

It's Fitzmas In March !!!

Ok, I'm a day or so late in this posting, but as Queen said, "Another one bites the dust"! Scooter went down for lying in the attempt to cover up and obstruct justice concerning a lawful investigation (and believe me, they've got a lot to cover up). I bet things are a little frazzled over there up in the 'ol White House. And Darth Cheney, boy there's a guy its all coming down on, right about now! Back to the batcave for awhile for the Darthster, hiding away from the press; but it may be too late; it's all unravelling, and paper shredders must be flying like crazy! This could open some more doors, if Scooty makes a deal with prosecutor Patrick "Elliot Ness" Fitzgerald in order to lessen his sentence, by turning the tables on the master conspirators (Shrub, the Darthster, and "Butterbean" Karl Rove).

What could take the spotlight off the Gang of Three, you say? Why a nice springtime bombing of Iran! Let's put 'em all under the spotlight of Justice, and then let that take its course, before they decide to begin, "Iraq; the Sequel". I mean, I do like Iranian cinema, but c'mon now!
