Progressives' views of our out-of-control planet
Well the weight of the world is FALLING And on my back I've been CRAWLING The state of affairs is APPALLING And the 6 o'clock news keeps CALLING Well I've been trying to see the world through their eyes Where black is white and day is night Left is Right Left is Right Left is Right, For me Well negotiations keep STALLING The United Nations keeps CALLING The Skeletons you're HAULING Won't hold when you're FALLING I’ve been trying to see the world through their eyes Where day is night and black is white Left is Right Left is Right Left is Right for me Put your head in the sand and you'll never know What's waiting for you in the depths below (below) Don't believe everything that you read Take what you want and keep what you need I’ve been trying to see the world through their eyes Where day is night and black is white Left is Right Left is Right Left is Right for me I said Left is Right Left is Right Left is Right for me For me, For me, For Me! TWISTED NIXON Written in 1998 after Johnny Punish who was sitting at the Las Vegas Hilton Sports Book and was hit by the absurdity of the place. It absorbed him and he wrote the phrase "LEFT is RIGHT for me" on a drink napkin. That night in a studio in the seedy back alleys of Las Vegas, LEFT IS RIGHT was born when then lead guitarist, Brian Jay Cline, wrote the clever verses while Twisted Nixon added the melodies. Sung by Brian Jay Cline, Left is Right is clearly Twisted Nixon's best ever in terms of a pop anthem. This song is the most requested song by fans. Produced by Paul Hampton of The Skeletones |

Yeah you punk, if you were really brave you would have posted this on Veteran's day at DKos! ;)
Mike, We are a sad, sick, and insecure society. You hit it out of the park at the end of the diary.
Don't expect to much change to soon. A work in progress, I guess. And if your hoping for change politically it will never happen. I doubt that a man will ever get elected president that runs on a anti-military platform.
Can't remember the article now but I realized I was just a tool of the fucking government while I was in. I'll look for it.
Still looking after the folks.
Take care Bro. Hope things are good at home. I might be coming in the Spring to SoCal. We have to hook up for dinner at least. The back has been hurting really bad lately... wink, wink.
I think the folks in the military have done an excellent job keeping the terrorists occupied overseas. I think that's "good" compared to exploding buildings in the US.
I am a Vietnam vet residing in the South Bay area. Myself and probably a few hundred of my veteran brothers and sisters would desire to meet face to face with mike stabile, david byron, and friends for a peaceful discussion in your home town of Cerritos as soon as possible.
