Media Insulting Ray Charles!

[goclark]

Why are they mixing the GREATEST, Ray Charles, with Reagan?
They even have him singing 'America" as a backdrop to the Reagan continuous coverage.

I just saw a photo with Ray Charles between Nancy and Ronnie.

Mr. Charles was/is a national hero. HE was a GREAT Communicator! HE helped to TEAR DOWN WALLS between countries and made people,through his music, come together in brotherhood.

He does not need to have his life or his death tied to the Reagan Media Display.

1. Thank you

I couldn't agree more. I am considering today a day of mourning for Ray Charles, not sumbitch Reagan.

2. I have never been moved by politics as I have been by music.

I have been moved by politics - I have been moved to take action. I have been stirred by the great words of great leaders. But I have never, ever found myself moved to tears by the workings of the political game.

But put on a good Ray Charles song like "I Can't Stop Loving You" or "You Don't Know Me" (or even his version of "America the Beautiful," Reagan footage and all), and I'll cry like a baby.

Music is the voice of God. Politics is the voice of people who all too often think they are God.

3. Come on! Did you expect them to let ANYTHING PASS without using it for

PROPAGANDA!!!!!!!
They cannot run on the "qualities" of their leadership...they must use ANYTHING ELSE THEY CAN.
I am going to use MoPaul's commentary on all this shit:

6. LOL!!!!! You are funny. I feel all of us feel like singing that song:

"They are going to take me away, HA HA! They are going to take me away, HA! HA!"
This whole thing is so FAR OVER THE TOP!

5. Ray meant a heck of a lot more to me than Ray-gun!

That's for sure. He should be getting a state funeral, not that asshole Reagan.

7. I saw them doing that - they said he was dead and then

showed him playing "America" in front of Reagan. A great American original artist and they can't treat him like an individual, just a propaganda prop. They are sickening.
