Thread Name: In Praise of Chuck Brodsky
Subject: RE: In Praise of Chuck Brodsky
I must come back once again to The song "Blow em Away" and two others.In the "in studio" video on You Tube, Chuck points out the nastiness of racism as directed against the Philadelphia Phillies player Richie Allen.In the song "The Man Who Blew Kisses"he displays a sensitivity to the mentally challenged.Does this appear to be a man who is "mean-spirited" and who truly extols the "virtues" of road rage?Not in my opinion.The listener or reader is expected to see the song for what it is-a satirical piece which points out the idiocy of road rage incidents and those who commit them.
