Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6I remember in 1983 during the Anti Amendment Campaign new words were also put to Whisky In The Jar. It was Stuff Your Fetus In The Jar. Dedicated to Fr Marx who used to go around to schools with a fetus in a jar.
Jesus Christ thats fucking terrible.
pat jive elsewhere.
Why do people seem to focus of Bush and Blair so much, surely people don't still believe that a different set of leaders, a "nicer" set, would have played it any differently? They're just figureheads of the global capitalist empire/spectacle.
Not that other leaders would be "nicer" but just not as stupid,
Bush Blair aren't that stupid they've delivered big style for those who put them in power, how are they stupid? you may think so but they don't give a hoot.
