Think of Joe

繼三月底台灣的326反反分裂法大遊行前，阿扁總統在阿扁電子報中引用了Bob Dylan的老歌"Blowing in The Wind"，以表明要和平反戰爭的想法；老宋在昨天在赴大陸「搭橋之旅」行前記者會也引用了Simon & Garfunkel的"Bridge Over Troubled Water"(惡水上的大橋)，表示自己的大陸行是為了兩岸的惡水上搭橋，還強調「I will lay me down」（我願倒下來搭橋）......不是說兩岸增進交流及和平對談有什麼不好，若真的能夠結束雙方敵對狀態，大家不再軍事對抗或軍備競賽，這些樂觀的和平想法，都很好。
只是當中共通過反裂法時，全球輿論一片撻伐之聲，而最近打開台灣的電視新聞台，卻有一種轉到大陸中央電視台的錯覺，326大遊行不也就是一個多月前嗎？
結果，前一個月，想要和平，the answer is blowing in the wind...
一個月後，已經有人帶著熊貓回來，接下來又有人要衝著自願倒下來搭橋...I will lay me down...
大家爭先恐後想要搶著去登陸，搶頭香、搶主導權、搶新聞版面，這......真的是「兩岸猿聲啼不住，輕舟已過萬重山」......

提供Simon & Garfunkel這首BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER供大家聆聽，載點在此。

【歌詞如下】
When you’re weary, feeling small,
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all;
I’m on your side. when times get rough
And friends just can’t be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

When you’re down and out,
When you’re on the street,
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you.
I’ll take your part.
When darkness comes
And pains is all around,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

Sail on silvergirl,
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
If you need a friend
I’m sailing right behind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
