Speaking Well of the Past??



While listening to NPR report on the FuckingRepublicans in Florida for some reason this song came to mind. Maybe it was all the sound bites of Newt talking about how he and his good buddy St. Ronnie worked together back in the day.  Back in the day Newt was a nobody from BFE(Georgia) and was talking all kinds of trash about Ronnie.  Now that Ronnie has been anointed, consecrated, declared god of the tax cut (even tho he raised taxes more often than he cut taxes) and everyone is convinced he walked on water, all the FuckingRepublicans have nothing but good things to say about St. Ronnie of Reagan.  Of course today St. Ronnie wouldn't make it out of Iowa!!

Maybe I shouldn't have put this song up in this context.  I really like the Old Dogs album and would hate for the song to be ruined for me because of the FuckingRepublicans!!!

  3. Spent all afternoon on Youtube listening to the old ones. All the hurtin' songs from 40-50 years ago.

    My kids know what that means from years of experience when dad starts playing hurtin' songs. Brown funk time. Need a shot of Scotch to cheer me up - as if it would.

    Sometimes it is just sad, thinking back.
