Oh my gawd, I just heard the puke-fest song of the day...

[Archae]

On the local radio station, they put this song as filler right before the news.

It was horrible. Worse than horrible. Even worse than Toby Keith's "Courtesy Of The Red White And Blue," if you can believe it.

BJ Thomas, "America Is."

70's or early 80's crap, saying what's so great about America, with just about any and every cliche possible. :puke:

[Lavender Brown]

1. I heard BJ THomas sing at a 4th of July event once

He really is the bottom of the barrel.

[Archae]

2. He's below that.

He's the sort of stuff you'd find under the barrel.

[Parche]

3. toby keith

He is one of the phoniest pukes out there
I cant stand country music anyway, if you call country.......music
You hear one song, you have heard them all


I am suprised they didnt play, Lee Greenwood's "Im proud to be an American" the song republicans think is our national anthem

[Archae]

4. This one is even worse than Lee's.

Because it done in that "soft rock style," BJ Thomas is best known for doing.

[snoogins]

5. that sort of faux Pro-Republican BS nonsense

makes me want to puke a lung.

I hate them all so much.

[Village Idiot]

6. Here's One More On the Mark:

Padded with power here they come
international loan sharks backed by the guns
of market hungry military profiteers
whose word is a swamp and whose brow is smeared
with the blood of the poor

Who rob life of its quality
who render rage a necessity
by turning countries into labour camps
modern slavers in drag as champions of freedom

Sinister cynical instrument
who makes the gun into a sacrament --
the only response to the deification
of tyranny by so-called developed nations'
idolatry of ideology

North south east west
kill the best and buy the rest
it's just spend a buck to make a buck
you don't really give a flying fuck
about the people in misery

IMF dirty MF
takes away everything it can get
always making certain that there's one thing left
keep them on the hook with insupportable debt

See the paid-off local bottom feeders
passing themselves off as leaders
kiss the ladies shake hands with the fellows
open for business like a cheap bordello

And they call it democracy
and they call it democracy
and they call it democracy
and they call it democracy

See the loaded eyes of the children too
trying to make the best of it the way kids do
one day you're going to rise from your habitual feast
to find yourself staring down the throat of the beast
they call the revolution

IMF dirty MF
takes away everything it can get
always making certain that there's one thing left
keep them on the hook with insupportable debt

"Call It Democracy" - Bruce Cockburn

7. ARRRRRGHHHHHH...

Had two sips of my morning coffee and there it was... Toby Keith... So much for wanting a Pop-Tart...

Mr. "Shock N Y'all" is such a putz. "I wanted to do something to shoe my support" Well, Toby, do us all a favor, since your such an "Angry American", come out of your safe little Nashville estate and take your ass over to Falujah, where you can proceed to personally put a "boot up thier ass".

You overpaid, overexposed, undertalented putz.
