Rush - Witch Hunt

The night is black
Without a moon
The air is thick, and still

The vigilantes gather on
The lonely torchlit hill

Features distorted in the flickering light
The faces are twisted and grotesque
Silent and stern in the sweltering night
The mob moves like demons possessed
Quiet in conscience, calm in their right ---
Confident their ways are best

The righteous rise
With burning eyes
Of hatred and ill-will

Madmen fed on fear and lies
To beat, and burn, and kill

They say there are strangers, who threaten us
In our immigrants and infidels
They say there is strangeness, too dangerous
In our theatres and bookstore shelves
That those who know what’s best for us ---
Must rise and save us from ourselves

Quick to judge
Quick to anger
Slow to understand

Ignorance and prejudice
And fear
Walk hand in hand

Governor Barbour announcing Operation Golden Rule where every county in Alabama will try to shelter those displaced by storms etc..."to give you [the federal government] some actions. The president thanks him. He's subdued. Someone else talking about search and rescue of those who refused to leave. Says federal agencies doing a great job...hopes the CG can deliver more fuel.

Aye, laddie. Witch hunt it is. Meanwhile people are dying, and we only now are getting a chance to quell the anarchists blocking the flow of aid. Sure MSM, Black Caucus, Jesse Jagoff, you guys keep complaining.

Mayor Nagin and Governor Blanco, how was your shower this morning? Oh, and I'm sorry you probably only got donuts for breakfast, not hot eggs and bacon. It's gonna suck so bad to have to replace all of those NOLA school busses - too bad you couldn't have gotten them out of town befor the storm...

;(
