It's not all that complicated, folks.
John McCain wants to change DC, Barack Obama wants to change America.
One candidate believes in and cares about this country, one doesn't.
It's your vote. Make it count.

... but sometimes God, I’m so alone
Contributed by Bill Faith

I’m O.K.
Bob Prinselaar

I’ll admit I’m slightly troubled
And there are times I’m downright sad
When I think back on things that happened
And some of those were really bad

But I’m O.K., I tell you truly
I’m alive, and that’s a lot
I’m better off than some old buddies
Yeah I’m alive, and they are not

There are times I dream about them
But mostly now, I only sleep
I’m telling you I’m doing fine now
Why should I think ‘bout things so deep

I never cry, cause that’s not manly
It’s not the way that I was taught
And what the hell, it’s all behind me
I’ve put aside just why we fought

I can’t remember all the reasons
There had to be some, I suppose
I do remember, for God and country
But it was more than only those

I lost some friends, for lofty reasons
And now they are forever gone
But I’m O.K., yeah I’m still living
But sometimes God, I’m so alone

Bob, if you wrote this recently, I would like you to email me. I suffered this hell too, but found a way back home.
