"Hey, Joe McCarthy...Congressman Rankin...Nixon...all you Klan guys that somehow ended up getting forgiven...you too, Gipper.

Pete's up here now WITH you...and he's gonna keep playing that banjo all day...every day...forever...and God ain't got no blacklist.

Deal with it".

(looks at clipboard again)

"OH...wait a minute...Pete's up here, but YOU guys just got blacklisted. You're still gonna hear his records all day, though...and now, he WILL be on television...24-7). Deal with THAT. Amen."

1. Who thinks that Pete would hang out with those clowns?

3. If there were two places in some sort of afterlife.

Pete Seeger would be in a different one than the other people you mentioned.

There are no such places, of course, except in our own memories, but Pete Seeger lives in mine. The others have faded away. In the early 1960s, I and a group of three other guys with guitars and my banjo sang songs written by Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie, and others, in many public gatherings. We weren't famous at all, but we sang those songs loudly and proudly. Others, more famous than we were, made them familiar to everyone.

It was a great time, and now, those who led the way are dying. Very sad business, that.

5. OK, But maybe they're being made to listen to his songs for all eternity.
