That's exactly what it is. Read the lyrics to this jerk's (Clint Black's) song - a song I'll bet he'll be singing at the Washington Post's little Bush campaign rally - then tell me why the Washington Post is sponsoring some rally that basically brands us as basically un-American. And be sure to check out just how bad this song is - these lyrics are the worst thing since that other idiot, Lee Greenwood, wrote that God Bless the USA crap.
"I RAQ AND ROLL"
Words and Music by Clint Black and Hayden Nicholas
YOU CAN WAVE YOUR SIGNS IN PROTEST
AGAINST AMERICA TAKING STANDS
[Ah, so we're all against America taking stands. That's why we oppose the war based on a lie.]
THE STANDS AMERICA'S TAKEN
ARE THE REASON THAT YOU CAN
[So now the Iraq war is the reason we're free.]
IF EVERYONE WOULD GO FOR PEACE
THERE'D BE NO NEED FOR WAR
BUT WE CAN'T IGNORE THE DEVIL
HE'LL KEEP COMING BACK FOR MORE
[So Democrats and the rest of us who have realized that Bush lied about the war are in fact "ignoring the devil."]
SOME SEE THIS IN BLACK AND WHITE
OTHERS ONLY GRAY
[I'm guessing the "gray" is us - people who can't see things clearly, have no sense of right and wrong.]
WE'RE NOT BEGGING FOR A FIGHT
NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY
[Which "they" is he talking about - us?]
WE HAVE THE RESOLUTION
THAT SHOULD PUT'EM ALL TO SHAME
BUT IT'S A DIFFERENT KIND OF DEADLINE
WHEN I'M CALLED IN THE GAME
CHORUS
I RAQ, I RACK'EM UP AND I ROLL
I'M BACK AND I'M A HIGH TECH GI JOE
I PRAY FOR PEACE, PREPARE FOR WAR
AND I NEVER WILL FORGET
THERE'S NO PRICE TOO HIGH FOR FREEDOM
SO BE CAREFUL WHERE YOU TREAD
THIS TERROR ISN'T MAN TO MAN
[Ok, so this is a pro Iraq war song that links Iraq to the war on terror - lovely. Nice job Washington Post - since you bought the pack of lies about this war and shoved it down the public's throat, big surprise you're now endorsing a rally where this is the kind of theme we can expect.]
THEY CAN BE NO MORE THAN COWARDS
IF THEY WON'T SHOW US THEIR WEAPONS
WE MIGHT HAVE TO SHOW THEM OURS
IT MIGHT BE A SMART BOMB
THEY FIND STUPID PEOPLE TOO
AND IF YOU STAND WITH THE LIKES OF SADDAM
ONE JUST MIGHT FIND YOU
[Again, are WE standing with the likes of Saddam? Not to mention, Saddam's gone, so what are we doing there?]
CHORUS II
I ROCK, I RACK'EM UP AND I ROLL
I'M BACK AND I'M A HIGH TECH GI JOE
I'VE GOT INFRARED, I'VE GOT GPS AND I'VE GOT THAT GOOD OLD FASHIONED LEAD
THERE'S NO PRICE TOO HIGH FOR FREEDOM
SO BE CAREFUL WHERE YOU TREAD
BRIDGE
NOW YOU CAN COME ALONG
OR YOU CAN STAY BEHIND
OR YOU CAN GET OUT OF THE WAY
BUT OUR TROOPS TAKE OUT THE GARBAGE
FOR THE GOOD OLD U.S.A.
I ROCK, I RACK'EM UP AND I ROLL
IN THE USA
I ROCK, I RACK'EM UP AND I ROLL
I'M TALKIN' ABOUT THE USA
