this diary is dedicated to all who suffer because of war
we love and support our troops, just as we love and support the Iraqi people – without exception, or precondition, or judgment
we have no sympathy for the devil

Iraqi hospital workers wheel the body of a violence victim into the morgue of a hospital in the restive city of Baquba northeast of Baghdad, November 2006. US President George W. Bush warned against expectations he will lay out plans for “a graceful exit” from Iraq, as news reports said the independent commission looking into Iraq policy will call for a 2008 withdrawal of US combat troops.

Strange Brew
written by Eric Clapton, Gail Collins and Felix Pappalardi
performed by Cream
Strange brew — kill what’s inside of you.
She’s a witch of trouble in electric blue,
In her own mad mind she’s in love with you.
With you.
Now what you gonna do?
Strange brew — kill what’s inside of you.
She’s some kind of demon messing in the glue.
If you don’t watch out it’ll stick to you.
To you.
What kind of fool are you?
Strange brew — kill whats inside of you.
On a boat in the middle of a raging sea,
She would make a scene for it all to be
Ignored.
And wouldn’t you be bored?
Strange brew — kill what’s inside of you.
Strange brew, strange brew, strange brew, strange brew.
Strange brew — kill what’s inside of you.
