| Regina Spektor – Ballad of a Politician Lyrics | 11 years ago |
| i think most here are being too specific noting one ruler or another. this is a template. basically all rules came to power this way from congressman on up. and around the world too. men making deals hatching plans is where politicians begin. the shake it shake it baby is clearly reference to the way politicians snuggle up to special interest groups for money, and power. in the midwest one of the rising stars is a man by the name of paul ryan, but who is he? most that are not in his district know him only for his ideas, his carefully laid message. he is not a number or a name any more but rather a carefully laid plan. but like i said this is no one in particular but rather the system that is politics. | |

you missed the mark compleatly, but i can understnad you seem not to be an atheist, and as such it is no surprise that you dont fully understand that position. as an atheist it is easy for me to make fun of religion in general, but why do i do it, why does she do it. when you were a kid laying in bed waiting for your dreams to carry you away, was there not a point where you suffered fear, perhaps something under your bed, perhaps a thump from down the hall. to think back on it do you feel fear at that thing still or humor that you were ever afraid in the first place? i contend atheist mocking religions is our way of sharing a laugh at what we feared and now have no reason to. and remember blasphemy is an unforgivable sin according to the bible, if we were unsure then making jokes is the last thin we would do. an atheist perspective |
