In this song it is clearly apparent that Eminem is anti-Bush. He mentions Bush's name multiple times throughout this song. There are many other references to Bush. In this video, the man comes home to his wife being re-assigned to Iraq. I think Eminem thinks that there are way too many people are being sent to Iraq. I agree with him; i think that they are basically sending people to their death. After he reads it he says F Bush. Then the mother receives a letter of eviction and looks over at her children and sees them watching Bush on the television talking about tax cuts. These are other examples of Eminem's view of the war and Bush.
DMB- The Last Stop
This song is not about any war particularly; the main focus of this song is war, peace and religion. DMB seems to have a very strong feeling about war and that they think it is pointless and leads to nothing good. The line "If hate's the gate to peace This is the last stop" means that war is not the way to achieve peace. Peace is achieved by not fighting and being peaceful and happy with everyone. The lines "Gracious even God Bloodied the cross Your sins are washed enough" are talking about how God sacrificed himself for all of us and we are still committing sins by fighting when we should be living in a peaceful world. This song is very sarcastic. When he says, "you're righteous" he is refering to how all people are full of hate and hate eachother and are very cocky of their power, which is why I think people feel war is need, to show off their power and strength.
