Even though this particular stopping and diverting of a plane was probably an abundance of caution, this does illustrate that the Bush administration's security procedures would seem to be working and are probably having some effect in keeping the garbage of Islam/terror out of our country.

Wild World

Now that I've lost everything to you
You say you wanna start something new
And it's breakin' my heart you're leavin'
Baby, I'm grievin'
But if you wanna leave, take good care
Hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there

Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
I'll always remember you like a child, girl

You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do
And it's breakin' my heart in two
Because I never wanna see you a sad, girl
Don't be a bad girl
But if you wanna leave, take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware

Chorus

Baby, I love you
But if you wanna leave, take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware

Chorus

Now clearly the subtext of these lyrics is expressing the author's full intentions to blow up the White House and force all women to wear Burquas ....... Geezus :rolleyes:

Yeah... I'll tell you though, as much as I liked those old songs he seems to have been funneling money to anti-american forces while putting on his "peace train" face.

There have been other stories about him for a good ten years now along these lines. I remember reading one where he put down America and thinking, "screw you, you bastard. America made you a millionaire and gave you the freedom/platform to spew this hate".

Great, great songs... I bought them, played them a million times on the radio, but that is not who he is, at least not anymore apparently.

Cat Stevens.....

you mean Yusef Islam?

While that sounds a little extreme, it's not a secret he has no love for the beliefs of this country anymore.

Fuck'm.

Just because the guy wrote some decent music back in the day, doesn't mean a person can change.....

OJ?
Robt. Blake?
