Another rant from Hank Williams Jr.

133. In apparently an unnecessary post script:

All the famous cowboy horses in movies and early tv were highly trained and, of course, capable of fancy footwork. They did so overloaded with silver tack--comparable with Ann Romney's horse to Ginger Rogers performing backwards in high heels with Fred Astaire. I never saw Trigger, but saw many other famous horses. I was only up close and personal with Silver. Jay Silverheels was touring with "Silver" (all animal stars had many doubles) and stayed overnight at a stable where I had a horse, as a kid. We weren't supposed to mess around with him, but of course did some patting and touching. Jay Silverheels was the real Tonto, however. As many horselovers (3rd generation) who are far from rich, I find myself defending horseowners in general because Ann Romney has horses. People who know nothing about it, make fun of any horse that isn't their unfamiliar idea of a real "cowboy" horse. Hate the Romneys, but leave Ann's horse alone.
