Those of you not old enough to know the words, or those of you who are old enough but don't remember,for whatever reason :), here are the lyrics
Tin soldiers and Nixon coming
We're finally on our own
This Summer I hear the drumming
Four dead in Ohio
Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are cutting us down
Should have been done long ago.
They are trying to convince people that the administration and Congress is at war with the people who elected them.
This is sickening
Not to quibble, but it was a song by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, with Neil writing the song and singing the lead.
It may be desperate -- but sadly, nothing new.
Remember how Ronnie Raygun utilized Bruce Springteen's Born In The USA for his reelection in '84? He apparently didn't realize the album title and most of the album's lyrics were an indictment of Raygun's policies toward the poor/middle class . . .
Oh, and don't get me started on the number of sixties and seventies songs that have been used in commercials as jingles to sell a product . . .
I know. They are one of my all time favorite groups. I always just refer to them as Crosby, Stills.
And please, keep ranting. The problem today is we don't have enough people with legitimate anger. Just the birthers, deathers, teabaggers and astroturfers who are angry but for all of the wrong reasons.
Thanks - will do.
and they are too stupid to really know what they are angry about. the conservative pundits/media basically tell them what to be angry about, and these people go out like robots and do what they are told. they dont know any better, so they have to follow the leader... i guess that would be the beck's, limbaugh's and hannity's of the world.
seriously, if that is what this country has come down to (following a bunch of moronic media pundits) then we are in BIG trouble. i mean, i love watching keith olbermann, chris matthews, ed schultz and msnbc, but i always take what they say with a grain of salt. its the political media for god sakes... sometimes its just good entertainment. but those people listen to beck, limbaugh and hannity like they have real legitimate insight.
I guess Insanity doesn't realize, the analogy would only work if Obama sent an armed invasion force into an American city. I've not heard of that happening.
I think Seannie Poo has THE WRONG ADMINISTRATION in mind . . .
CHAPTER VII
A Mad Tea-Party
There was a Mad Tea Party Bus in front of Sean Hannity's studio, and the March Hare and the Hatter were having tea at it: Glen Beck was sitting between them, fast asleep, and the other two were using the Constitution as a cushion, resting their elbows on it, and talking over its head. `Very uncomfortable for the Constitution,' thought Faux News' Bream; `only, as it's asleep, I suppose it doesn't mind.'
The Mad Tea Party Express was a large bus, but the three were all crowded together at one corner of it: `No room! No room for any health care reform!' they cried out when they saw a sick person coming.
`There's plenty of room!' said the progressive caucus indignantly, and realized it was easier to talk to a dining room table than the loons of the Mad Tea Party.
`Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: `we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.'
`How do you know I'm mad?' said Bream.
`You must be,' said the Cat, `or you wouldn't have come here.'
A putz like Hannity, who was what, eight or nine years old during the anti-war protests, intimating that these teabaggers have anything in common with what went on during Vietnam is ludicrous. Several of the guys that I grew up with had their lives and or their health runied. They were not fortunate enough to have friends in high places that could keep them out of the serivce, like Limbaugh did,or in his case, it would be low places.
Or unlike our 44th President who managed to get into the National
Guard. And later,even have that record "lost".
If this is the coming 'revolution' count me out.
Maybe someone should tell Sean that he could sell Hannity's America T-shirts at the waterboarding event, and that Toby Keith could "sing" beforehand.
Oops - I stand corrected
THE DRAFT BOARD.
C'mon, FAILliberal . . . read something BESIDES WND, Drudge, and Rush Limpballs sometime -- you might actually learn something . . .
And for the same reason, too . . .
TRANSLATION: We want to let folks know the Tea Party Express schedule so they can be as much a part of the events as WE will.
And with the 'right' sign they just might get on the TV.
Yeah -- like these:
Although, perhaps not for the reason they were thinking, LOL . . .
We Promote.
You Deride.
Too bad for them Rush is not on on weekends, I guess.
The moment they sponsored the first one of these Tea Party event they should have been removed from the press room and escorted out of the White House.
