1. Ok. So why would I not want commies and Nazis running as say, commies and Nazis?
Frankly I don't want TeaBaggers running as Republicans.

6. I think we have some commies and nazis...
running as Republicans. All you have to do is take a gander at some of the bizaar statements they have been making for the past 4+ years.

2. So what's the big deal?
The Constitution does not forbid third parties or fourth or fifth...the fact that we think of them as "third parties" just shows how entrenched the two main political parties are. You get two choices...a hot steaming pile of poo, or a hot steaming pile of puke. Neither choice really satisfies. We now have a third option of a hot, steaming cauldron of insana-Tea, but that's one drink I'm not taking. Tastes too much like Kool-Aid.

8. The parties you don't like started out just fine. They good folks let themselves be run off and disc
ouraged. I want my party back and you can get yours back, too. When only 20% show up at the polls. 80% of this country handed the government over to tea baggers and conservatives: the "I got mine, fuck you" crowd. I voted for the President and my voting for the best man will in the end help the GOP. We all need to vote the asses out a couple of times and the politicians WILL get the message.

This music file is located at the Internet Wayback Machine http://www.archive.org/web/web.php search the audio files or go to the 78 RPMs & Cylinder Recordings/Music & Arts section:





CooCooBird (October 23, 1929)

Recorded on October 23, 1929 in Johnson City, Tennessee. Greil Marcus describes this tunes as a "folk-lyric" tune "made up of verbal fragments that had no direct or logical relationship to each other." Ashley's banjo is tuned to G-modal, also referred to as Sawmill tuning. Some folklorists note that the cuckoo is an ancient symbol for the coming of summer.
