For those of you who have not seen The U.S. vs. John Lennon, I highly recommend it. In fact my first post along with a series of following ones are going to be in refernece to this documentary. John Lennon was not simply a Beatle, but he evolved into a revolutionary artist and humanitarian who shook up politics in the United States by spreading the message of love.
Although the quote below was in reference to the politics of the Vietnam era, I feel it still can be applied to the current era of the Bush Admnistration and all this "War on Terrorism":
"Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. If anybody can put on paper what our government and the American government, etc, what they are actually trying to do and what they think they're doing, I'd be very pleased to know what they actually think they're doing. I think they're all insane but I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that, that's what's insane about it." -John Lennon
What are the objectives of America now? Has President Bush's War on Terrorism objectives stayed consistent with the Administrations actions? As citizens of this country and this world we must keep our government in check and hold it, and it's members accountable for all actions great or small.
