Teach Your Children. Well?

You who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so become yourself
Because the past is just a good bye.

Teach your children well,
Their father's hell did slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picked, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.

And you, of tender years,
Can't know the fears that your elders grew by,
And so please help them with your youth,
They seek the truth before they can die.

Counter Melody To Above Verse:
Can you hear and do you care and
Cant you see we must be free to
Teach your children what you believe in.
Make a world that we can live in.

Teach your parents well,
Their children's hell will slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picked, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.

A Nobel Peace Laureate (hat tip Drudge), possibly not following Graham Nash's advice (or Crosby's, or Stills', Young probably agrees with her judging from his last release).

I'm not going to give any Amazon links to that damn, dirty, hippie group that sang that insipid, damn, dirty, hippie song.

Also, the accompanying quotes are the typical unrealistic pacifistic blather that enervates invigorates tyrants everywhere.

[update: might help if I type a word that isn't the antonym of my intended meaning, my brain knows the difference, but evidently my fingers forgot. I'll post the usage note from Dictionary.com on evervates
Usage Note: Sometimes people mistakenly use enervate to mean “to invigorate” or “to excite” by assuming that this word is a close cousin of the verb energize. In fact enervate does not come from the same source as energize (Greek energos, “active”). It comes from Latin nervus, “sinew.” Thus enervate means “to cause to become ‘out of muscle’,” that is, “to weaken or deplete of strength.”
I guess I'm not the only one who has made that mistake]

Useful Idiot, that one.

(had to sneak in one Amazon link in this post).
