Cat Stevens' "Morning Has Broken"
Morning has broken, like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for the springing fresh from the world
Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven
Like the first dewfall, on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where his feet pass
Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
Born of the one light, eden saw play
Praise with elation, praise every morning
God's recreation of the new day

This is a two step process. Step one is to eliminate the left as an influence in America. Step two is to move America in the right direction.

Cat Stevens' "Father and Son"
Father
It's not time to make a change,
Just relax, take it easy.
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to know.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.
I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy,
To be calm when you've found something going on.
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything you've got.
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.
Son
How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again.
It's always been the same, same old story.
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen.
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.
Father
It's not time to make a change,
Just sit down, take it slowly.
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to go through.
Find a girl, settle down,
if you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.
(Son-- Away Away Away, I know I have to
Make this decision alone - no)
Son
All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside,
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it.
If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them you know not me.
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.
(Father-- Stay Stay Stay, Why must you go and
make this decision alone?)

A History Lesson
The division of the human family into its two distinct political branches occurred some 10,000 years ago, when humans coexisted as members of small bands of nomadic hunter/gatherers.
The pivotal event of societal evolution was the invention of beer. This epochal event was both the foundation of modern civilization and the occasion of the bifurcation of humanity into its two distinct subgroups:
Liberals and Conservatives.
Once beer was discovered, it required grain, and that was the beginning of agriculture. Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum can were invented yet, so it was necessary to stick close to the brewery. That's how villages were formed.
Some men spent their days killing animals to barbecue at night while they were drinking beer. This was the beginning of the conservative movement.
Other men who were weaker and less skilled at hunting, learned to live off the conservatives by showing up for the nightly barbecues and doing the sewing, fetching and hair dressing. This was the beginning of the liberal movement.
An interesting evolutionary side note: some of these early liberal men eventually evolved into women. (Girlie men?)
Liberal achievements include the domestication of cats, the trade union, the invention of group therapy and group hugs, and the concept of democratic voting to decide how to divide the meat and beer that the conservatives provided.
Over the years, conservatives came to be symbolized by the largest, most powerful land animal on earth.
Liberals are symbolized by the jackass.
Modern liberals like imported beer (with lime added), but most prefer white wine or imported bottled water. They eat raw fish but like their beef well done. Sushi, tofu, and French food are standard liberal fare.
Another interesting evolutionary side note: most of their women have higher testosterone levels than their men.
Most social workers, personal injury attorneys, journalists, dreamers in Hollywood and group therapists are liberals. Liberals invented the designated hitter rule because it wasn't "fair" to make the pitcher also bat.
Conservatives drink domestic beer, They eat red meat, and still provide for their women Conservatives are big-game hunters, rodeo cowboys, lumber jacks, construction workers, medical doctors, police officers, corporate executives, soldiers, athletes, NASCAR drivers, and generally anyone who works productively outside government. Conservatives who own companies hire other
conservatives who want to work for a living.
Liberals produce little. They like to "govern" the producers and decide what to do with the production. Liberals believe Europeans are more enlightened than Americans. That is why most of the liberals remained in Europe when conservatives were coming to America. They crept in after the wild west was tamed and created a business of trying to get MORE for nothing
Hence; this brings us to where we are today!
Here ends the lesson in world history.

Don't count on polls this year
by David Keene
Is President Bush ahead by 13 points, as one poll suggested last week, or is the race a dead heat? The experts don't seem to know, and one can sympathize, given the chaotic nature of polling these days, but casual
observers and those following the race for the presidency have to be totally confused by this point. It does seem clear that while Sen. John Kerry failed to get the "bounce" he needed from his convention, Bush did get one from the show his people put on in New York.
The question is whether his "bounce" explains the lead some say he now enjoys or whether something else is happening. The answer is that he did accomplish what he needed to accomplish in New York and is running against an opponent who just doesn't seem to be able to get his act together.
Having said this, it would be foolish and inaccurate to assume Bush enjoys anything approaching a double-digit lead at this point. The nation remains fairly evenly divided, and while it is possible that the thus-far ineptly run Kerry campaign will lose by a bigger margin than some expect, no one should bet on that happening.
The polls are all over the place for a variety of reasons. Polling is getting more and more difficult because it is harder in today's world for pollsters to draw a reliably random sample with literally millions of Americans using cellular rather than regular phones and more than ever refusing to cooperate with pollsters who do manage to reach them. These problems have, of course, been widely reported, as pollsters and those who rely on their work whine about the difficulty of getting really accurate results or try to explain why one poll differs so much
from another taken during roughly the same time period and seeking answers to virtually identical questions.
What most of us who pore over the results of every poll that appears often fail to realize is that political and other surveys are only scientific to a point. Any student of public-opinion research can theoretically draw a random sample, but such a sample isn't particularly useful in gauging how people who will actually vote on Election Day feel or will act. To get this information, the pollster has to look at the demographic and partisan makeup of the sample drawn to see how it stacks up against the actual electorate.
Thus, if the sample contains too many more Republicans, women or minorities than the electorate, the pollster usually adjusts by weighting the opinions of some respondents differently than others or goes back and tries to adjust for the differences in other ways. Sometimes this works, and sometimes it doesn't.
But that's only part of the problem. The real problems come when pollsters try to "screen" for "likely" voters,
those who we can be pretty sure will vote Nov. 2. There is no scientific way to do this, so pollsters look to history by seeking respondents who have voted in past elections, rely on the respondents' expressed intention, and use guesswork.
It is the guesswork that is a problem. The pollster has to develop a screen that takes into account the nature of the campaign, the intensity on each side and the relative motivation of different demographic and other groups in the electorate. It's easy to guess wrong at this point, and being wrong can make a huge difference.
This year, both parties are mounting get-out-the-vote efforts unlike any we have seen. If one of the parties does better than the other in dragging its voters out on Election Day, the outcome could differ substantially from predictions and the candidate behind on the eve of the election could win. Other external events not associated with the campaigns themselves could also affect this.
Everyone involved on both sides assumes Florida, for example, will be almost as close as it was four years ago, and each side has worked to put together a ground army in that crucial state to deliver on Election Day. Their troops, however, have just managed to survive a series of
horrendous hurricanes that have disrupted everything in crucial parts of the state. Both campaigns must now wonder whether people they have been counting on who have been traumatized by what's gone on down there will perform as they've hoped.
The answers to these questions cannot be answered by Gallup or any other pollster.
What a combined look at the polls and the other evidence we have indicates is that this is a close race and will be decided by the people who actually turn out Nov. 2.
It's trite to observe, as politicians who find themselves behind are wont to do, that the only real poll that matters is the one in which people vote on Election Day, but this year that couldn't be truer.

"The former Cat Stevens was slated to be deported to England on Wednesday because of U.S. government concerns that the soft-rock singer turned Muslim activist has ties to terrorism. The "Peace Train" singer was placed on the no-fly list this summer after new intelligence showed Stevens - now known by his Muslim name Yusuf Islam - had "connections to groups involved in terrorist activities," said a U.S. government official speaking on condition of anonymity. A second senior U.S. official said there were concerns that Islam - believed to have provided money to the militant Palestinian group Hamas - also may have visited an Islamic extremist camp in South Asia sometime in the past. He declined to elaborate."

BALLAD OF DAN RATHER
(Think "Beverly Hillbillies" theme song)
Come and listen to my story 'bout a man named Dan,
The documents were fake and he didn't give a dam*;
He put 'em on the air, an' he thought he'd done the job,
But up from the web come a howlin' mob.
Blogs, that is.
Web logs.
Checkin' facts.
Well, the first thing you know ol' Dan's a-runnin' fast;
Made a false report an' it bit him in the ass;
He said 'dog-gonnit, I done thought I'd get away!'
But it turned out to be his a-reckonin' day.
Busted, that is.
Red-faced.
Mud in the eye.
Well, now it's time to say goodbye to Dan and all his men;
And they would like to shoot you folks for turnin' them in;
You're all invited back next week to watch the Evening News,
And see which correspondent's picked to fill Dan's empty shoes.
Y'all come back, now, hear?
