Why the left is cooler? We write better music.
Left Wing Country Music
David Hooper's Indie Musician Blog has an article on an interesting phenomenon: left-wing country music. As you probably know, most country music these days is predictably 'safe', targetting a certain demographic that doesn't want its boat rocked. Thankfully, some other artists are finally going on record (sorry, couldn't resist) as opposed to the status quo.
But after last night's debate, and BushCo's serious list of gaffes, misrepresentations, and spooky giggle-fits, anyone should feel fine with getting out their pen and guitar and penning something... More on the debate fun can be found on Josh Marshall's TPM. The most played clip of BushCo in history, and he denied ever saying it. But even that doesn't come close to the Tony Soprano comment from John Kerry (SeattlePI debate transcript):
KERRY: I want you to notice how the president switched away from jobs and started talking about education principally.
Let me come back in one moment to that, but I want to speak for a second, if I can, to what the president said about fiscal responsibility.
Being lectured by the president on fiscal responsibility is a little bit like Tony Soprano talking to me about law and order in this country.
