5. Right-Wingers Love CCR, because most don't have a f**king clue...
Edited on Sun Feb-06-05 03:20 PM by Hissyspit
...what the lyrics are about. (i.e. George Will misreads Springsteen's "Born In The U.S.A." CCR is Creedence Clearwater Revival, John Fogerty's 1960's band, for those who may be wondering...)

NOTE: Censorship of the word 'fucking' is my own.
