Punk-Prayer "Virgin Mary, Put Bloomberg Away"
Pussy Rioters of NYC have performed a protest musical piece in Saint Patrick's Cathedral. Following are the lyrics:
New York's Saint Patrick's Cathedral (choir) Virgin Mary, Mother of God, put Bloomberg awayРut Bloomberg away, put Bloomberg away
(end chorus)
...Black robe, golden epaulettesAll parishioners crawl to bow
The phantom of liberty is in heaven
Homeless people get one way tickets
The protector enabler of wall street speculators , their chief saint,
Leads protesters maced with news fotogs chased
In order not to offend His shortness
Homeless must clear the street- that's leave!
Shit, shit, the Lord's shit!
Shit, shit, the Lord's shit!
(Chorus) Virgin Mary, Mother of God, become a feminist
Become a feminist, become a feminist
(end chorus)
The Church’s praise of rotten dictators
From Joe McCarthy to Frankie Franco
A teacher-preacher will meet you at school
Go to class - bring him boy tush!
Cardinal Dolan believes in Bloomberg
Bitch, better believe in God instead
The belt of the Virgin can’t replace mass-meetings
Mary, Mother of God, is with us in protest!
(Chorus)
Virgin Mary, Mother of God, put Bloomberg away
Рut Bloomberg away, put Bloomberg away (end chorus)

We have paid thousands of lives to obtain this freedom.
From the 18th Century to now.
Putin doesn't understand free speech. He is a man of hierarchy. He is also the uncultivated norm for humanity -- minimizes the need to think.
ummmm Pussy Riot staged this (unauthorized of course) "protest concert" including "Shit shit the Lord's Shit!" in the main cathedral of the Russian Orthodox Church. The video flips the script. Instead of Moscow the (unauthorized) protest is in St. Patrick's Cathedral in NY. Instead of attacking the top cleric in the Russian church and the President of Russia the video puts the Cardinal of the Catholic Church in NYC and Mayor Bloomberg in their steads. The question is how you think that concert would end up for the performers. The reason for the question is that this website had supported the "protest concert" in Moscow, and now three of the performers are on trial with very serious charges facing them. I'd like to see Sting, for example, who supports the "protest" to pull something like that off in St. Paul's in London. Lots of luck....
Replication at Zuccotti Park and spoken in Russian -- that is real.
That is doable.
That could be mounted once a month for years.
Collateral damage, who cares... think of them as suicide bombers.
Putin has a new gambit from which to hide his ongoing dictatorship.
