Blanket Apology

jule1122For once when someone says "It's not you; it's me." they actually mean it. The last few weeks have been extraordinarily bad, and as a result, I have been neglecting all of you. I am still reading for the most part, but I haven't been responding much. So if I owe you an email, didn't comment on a fic, or participate in a discussion, it's not because I'm not interested. And I really am sorry.
I am prone to hibernating when I get depressed. And while I have thought and responses in my head it seems like too much work to type them out. I've been a little better the last few days, but I don't expect that to last.
Since I need to wrap this up and one of the things I am incredibly frustrated with is the way we continue to allow our President to continue this war unchallenged by the politicians we eleceted to stop him, I am putting the lyrics to the Barenaked Ladies incredibly insightful song Fun & Games behind the cut. If only Democrats got it as well as Canadians do. If any wants me to upload, let me know.
We sent in the army
They sounded alarms
We saw it coming from a mile away
We kept it off radar
'Cause we had to say our
Intentions were to save the day
Why did you fail to see?
It was all for a laugh
They were shocked and they were awed and they were blown in half
Fun and Games
We were just pulling legs
We knew this barrel of fun would be a powder keg
We kept it all long range
And made a regime change
You'd have thought it would have been a gas
And when it got ugly
We sat around smugly
Because you bought our little joke en mass
Don't look at me that way
It was a gag
It was all for a laugh
We knew your sons and daughters would be blown in half
Fun and Games
We were just pulling legs
We knew this barrel of fun would be a powder keg
Put a smile on
We're the ones that you selected
Leave that dial on, son
Because we just got re-elected
In a while our bill of rights will be rejected, and all the blame will be deflected, the forests will be unprotected, the nations' poor will be neglected, creation myth is resurrected, the new salute is genuflected, the Gallup poll will be respected, a gallows pole will be erected
And all this will go undetected
And while you all slumbered
We sat and crunched numbers
Of all the casualties we could afford
There's no need to draft them
You could here us laugh then
The poor and black all need their room and board
Did I say that out loud?
It was a gag
It was all for a laugh
And now our very nation has been blown in half
Fun and Games
We were just pulling legs
We knew this barrel of fun would be a powder keg
