Confusion, Land Of

I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street.
Now did you read the news today
They say the dangers gone away
But I can see the fires still alight
There burning into the night.
Theres too many men
Too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Cant you see
This is a land of confusion.
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands were given
Use them and lets start trying
To make it a place worth living in.
Wow. Compared to the idiocy of Scott Stantis, even Genesis sounds fucking profound.
When Mike Rutherford, Tony Banks, and Phil Collins -- all of 'em poncey wankers -- could see through "Reagan's Optimism" back in 1986, you wonder how people are still lapping at the Ronnie Kool-Aid punch bowl today.
Maybe it's the conservatives' Reagan-inspired optimism that Reagan's Optimism will carry them through until Romney's Reagan's Optimism can rescue the world with a fresh dose of optimism. Or some such bullshit.
Save us, Stuporman.

Did he just turn the VT shootings into an excuse to get down on his knees in front of Reagan? WTF?
His "profundity" this week reminded me of these James Brown song lyrics from "Talking Loud and Saying Nothing":
You're like a dull knife, you just ain't cuttin'
You're just talkin' loud then sayin' nothing
Just sayin' nothing, just sayin' nothing
You can't tell me how to run my life down
You can't tell me how to keep my business on
You can't tell me what I'm doin' wrong
When you keep jivin' and singin' that same old funny* song
*obviously, I was not thinking of the "ha ha" kind of "funny"
