Weapons of Mass Deception
Playing the part of the President, poorly: GWB.
State of the Union 2003 vs. State of the Union 2004.
Political angst with a techno beat. The social commentary of folk music meets samplers and sequencers.
I throw up my hands up at the DC politicians,
the masked jackals rewarding their friends
at the expense of the country.
And I wonder if anything can be done.
And I wonder what can be done.
And I wonder what I can do...
And then, I step into the void, and do it.
Story behind the song
Playing the part of the President, poorly: GWB.
State of the Union 2003 vs. State of the Union 2004.
In 2003 the world was warned of Iraq's 25000 litres of anthrax, 38000 litres of botulinum toxin, 5000 tonnes of sarin, mustard, and VX nerve agent, 30000 munitions capable of delivering chemical agents, several mobile biological weapons labs, and an advanced nuclear weapons development programme.
In 2004, we were reassured that "dozens of weapons of mass destruction related program activities" were identified. As of David Kay's resignation from his post as head of US Iraq Survey Group, no actual weapons of mass destruction have been found. According to Kay, it is highly unlikely that any will ever be found.
Weapons of Mass Destruction Related Program Activities. Indeed.
