Obama is too intelligent for the United States???? Hmmm. I don't doubt that he is an intelligent man. There's a fine line between intelligence and common sense and what Obama might have in intellect he lacks seriously in common sense. His "czar" appointments alone are proof of this.

As far as Vidal's desire to murder Bush, this is nothing more than the deep seated common hatred found among leftists, who in no way can tolerate those that disagree with their self proclaimed superior intellect. So not only is Vidal a couple cans shy of a six pack, he's also a progressive snob.

Been there, done that

So long 'Beefy' thanks for hanging with us for a while.

Governor Huckabee jammin' with Skynyrd

From the page: "An informative article, at least for me. I wasn't aware that Skynyrd had made a new album. Look forward to picking this one up.

As a teenager growing up in the seventies, I was a proud Lynyrd Skynyrd fan. Skynyrd had a such laid back sound that just couldn't help but be considered "cool" for that era. It is ironic though from where they've evolved. Songs from their earlier days like "Saturday Night Special" and "Gimme Three Steps" were certainly not pro gun songs. Not to mention their support of Jimmy Carter in the 76 election makes me wonder how Ronnie Van Zant would react to where the band is today.

Regardless, Ronnie's gone and brother Johnny is now the front man and their obvious love for country has veered to the right.


I rediscovered Lynyrd Skynerd in 2004 with the song "Red White & Blue" from the album "Vicious Cycles.

My first impression was that if the band wasn't intentionally trying to come across as somewhat conservative in this song, they were failing miserably."

The Broken Common Bond. "These are the times that try men's souls. Take back America now!!"
