Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: Rick Fielding Date: 23 Jun 00 - 11:22 AM Dear Governor Bush. Thanks so much for joining this Mudcat discussion...we really ARE making inroads into the mainstream aren't we? I'm not sure if you can count on too many votes from Mudcat, but if it's any consolation, I doubt if Pat Buchannan can either. Al Gore will probably win the day here, but not because of his sparkling personality, strong convictions, and dynamic sex-appeal. His success will be due entirely to Catspaw's refusing to accept the nomination once again. It's been our habit to welcome new members and point them in constructive directions, so feel free to browse the D.T. You'll find lots of songs about Jesus, hangins', shootin' irons and cocaine. Hope you'll name a Secretary of Folk. Rick |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: GUEST Date: 23 Jun 00 - 11:07 AM We teach our children to take responsibility for their actions, and that actions have consequences. And we punish them for doing bad things, even when they show remorse and promise never to do it again, to uphold the things we teach them. But we're quick to excuse the most heinous behavior because the perpetrator was on drugs, or had a bad childhood, or repented. So our kids get a mixed message. No wonder they get confused. Karla Faye had to take responsibility for her actions, and her actions had consequences. |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: GUEST,Governor George W. Bush Date: 23 Jun 00 - 10:57 AM More than two years ago, a satirical paper down here in Texas printed a little April Fool's joke about me revoking the pardon of this Leadbelly fellow, a blues-singin' two-time murderer. It was a joke and it was years ago. Why are you Mudcats so hung up on this? It's not like I could have executed a guy who's already been dead for 50 years. Hell, I never even heard of this Leadbelly fellow until the joke came out. W. |

And isn't it really strange how all these death penalty stories seemed to come out of nowhere when Bush started running for president. It doesn't take much to see through that, now does it? |

From: catspaw49 Date: 22 Jun 00 - 08:49 PM I think that if we can't abolish the death penalty, then we need to amend the jury system so that in these capital, death penalty cases, you must establish guilt beyond ALL DOUBT.

Subject: ADDSB: THE BALLAD OF KARLA FAYE TUCKER From: Ivan Date: 22 Jun 00 - 02:57 PM I posted this to the Mudcat Songbook last week but it seems to have disappeared (or maybe I'm just not very good at finding things!) Anyway, I think it may be of particular interest to George W. Bush's fans so here it is again. THE BALLAD OF KARLA FAYE TUCKER (Ivan McKeon) Karla Faye was a bad girl, \ an addict by the age of ten She sold her body on the streets of Houston \ to pay for heroin To pay for heroin. By twenty-one she was a call-girl \ and a drug-dealer by trade With her boyfriend Daniel Garrett \ lived a life of sin and shame A life of sin and shame. Now her brother-in-law, name of Jerry Dean, \ had been beating up his wife Karla Faye planned to take revenge \ by stealing his motorbike His beloved motorbike. After a three-day orgy \ of drugs and drink and sex Karla and Daniel and a friend named Jimmy \ put the plan into effect They put the plan into effect. They went round to Jerry's building \ and sneaked into the place They thought that he was out of town \ but took weapons just in case Took weapons just in case. But Jerry was at home that night \ lying in his bed Daniel took a hammer \ and he struck him on the head He struck him on the head. Then Karla grabbed a pickax \ as she heard him moan in pain She swung the axe at Jerry's head \ and smashed up Jerry's brain She smashed poor Jerry's brain. Now Deborah Thornton had hidden away \ when she heard them coming in She screamed out loud when she saw the deed, \ sealed her fate right there and then Sealed her fate right there and then. Twenty strokes of the pickax \ until the deed was done When the police asked why she did it \ she said it was just for fun Said it was just for fun . Well Jimmy turned states evidence, \ the law let him walk free But the judge would not allow Karla Faye \ any mitigation plea No mitigation plea. In prison she stole a bible \ and took it to her cell She read from it night after night \ then on her knees she fell Down on her knees she fell. She said "Lord there is no reason \ for you to listen to what I say I'm the very worst of sinners", \ but He listened anyway He listened anyway. She became a preacher \ while still in prison bound She helped so many others there \ to turn their lives around To turn their lives around. The police and prison authorities \ agreed onto a man: "She helps so many to mend there ways \ like no-one else here can Like no-one else here can". Even the brother of the girl she killed \ spoke for her by and by Said "I forgive this woman \ and I pray she will not die I pray she will not die". And hell-fire preacher Pat Robertson, \ and he's no liberal man He said "This is a special case \ I'll help her all I can. I'll help her all I can". The appeal court sat in a crowded room, \ the judges side by side Said: "The laws of the state of Texas, \ they cannot be denied They will not be denied". They set the execution date, \ said: "This is what must be And the only thing that will save you now \ is a governor's decree The state governor's decree". Governor Bush he stood his ground, \ like Pilate he washed his hands He said "I cannot judge this case, \ I'll leave it in God's hands I'll leave it in God's hands". With Karla Faye strapped in the chair \ a silence filled the hall The very last word this woman said \ was "Friends I love all" "Friends I love you all". The crowd gathered round the prison gate, \ singing and drinking beer When the word came down that Karla Faye died \ you should have heard them cheer. Lord, you should have heard them cheer. Now Karla Faye was a bad girl, \ with evil to her name But George W. Bush and the state of Texas, \ they bear the greater shame. They bear the greater shame. The final line originally went " But the lone-star state of Texas, it bears the greater shame" but after Governor Bush won the presidential nomination I figured that he should have greater prominence. This song is based on actual events (as they say for all those TV movies) but please remember it is a BALLAD not a history. The background information was sourced from various places including CNN and Karla Faye Tucker's own autobiography, with a fair degree of poetic licence. In particular, any remarks attributed to individuals are paraphrased from their reported comments - not verbatim quotes (libel lawyers please take note!) The tune I wrote it to is adapted from the traditional tune for"Frankie and Albert" (the original version of the "Frankie and Johnny" song) as recorded by Rory Block, but with bars nine and ten (- he was her man -) missed out.

Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: gillymor Date: 01 Jun 00 - 04:38 PM Right GUEST, and he did do a stretch at Angola after Texas. For more go to www.blueflamecafe.com/Leadbelly.html. Now I'm goin fishing for a while, thanks for the discussion all. Frankie |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: GUEST Date: 01 Jun 00 - 08:10 AM Never mind. Further investigation revealed he was convicted of murder in Texas and served time at Huntsville Prison Farm. It was there that he received the pardon. As Johnny Carson used to say, "I didn't know that!" |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: GUEST Date: 01 Jun 00 - 07:51 AM I thought Leadbelly served time in Angola (Louisiana). So how did it come about originally that a Texas governor pardons a Louisiana inmate??? I can see where that would be overstepping the bounds of authority. |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: gillymor Date: 31 May 00 - 05:53 PM James, I think balance on the court is a very important issue in this next election. Two of our most conservative justices, Rehnquist and Thomas, were appointed by moderate republican presidents. Their party, as I'm sure you know, has a very vocal and powerful conservative faction that must be served. The fact that the Miranda ruling is also currently under siege gives this issue even more weight, IMHO. ...and Leadbelly's response to Shrub, perhaps:
Home of the brave, Land of the Free, Regards, Frankie |

Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: kendall Date: 31 May 00 - 03:24 PM I am in favor of a global economy. We are all in one boat. But, tell that to a guy who used to work for Briggs & Stratton. They went south to take advantage of that cheap labor, but the price of a lawn mower stayed the same didn't it? And what about this guy and his $100,000 mortgage? Can he pay that off flipping burgers? Let's face it. Greed rules, and corporate America has it's front feet firmly in the trough. |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: katlaughing Date: 31 May 00 - 11:38 AM Sorry, JamesJIm, but I do not agree with you that Roe vs Wade is safe. I've been working with a human rights groups for many years and been involved in the women's movement for even longer, and it is always a struggle to maintain a woman's right to govern her own body. There are many conservatives who will do their best to change the makeup of the Supreme Court and elect like-thinkers to Congress in an effort to remove that right. respectfully & not wanting to start a huge debate, kat |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: JamesJim Date: 30 May 00 - 10:53 PM Kendall, I would remind you that Bill Clinton and Al Gore supported NAFTA and lobbied strongly for it. With regard to abortions, there are no extremists running in this election (despite what one side may say about the other). Roe vs. Wade is safe. Our economy is rapidly changing to a global one and I for one believe that will be good for this Country and it's citizens. Yes, there has to be fair trade, but we can't stick our head in the sand and pretend nothing is happening. It's a new age - just look at Mudcat to see how we are becoming more global. Citizens from all over the world are members. The only danger is for those who try to stand and fight - who want to keep things the same - who want to be isolationists - who think change is bad. Life goes on! Sincere and kindest regards. Jim |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: katlaughing Date: 30 May 00 - 08:04 PM It would help a lot if the majority of the population gave enough of a damn to actually vote, huh, Spaw? Then maybe we'd get more than the dum and dee. |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: catspaw49 Date: 30 May 00 - 06:25 PM Look guys...I'm not being flip about any of this...and I feel for the girl as I have some personal interest myself in that subject. Nor is this about not caring or not voting. But I hear constantly that "the candidates are all alike and its tweedledum and tweedledee." Then I hear that "Freedom" is at stake. I'm simply pointing out why dum and dee end up being much the same and that the freedoms are personal and only exist as far as we are individually willing and able to pursue them as are "rights." Forget I brought it up. I'm not going into it here. Spaw |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: gillymor Date: 30 May 00 - 06:01 PM Spaw, if they overturn Roe vs Wade will you explain to a poor young woman who is facing the prospect of deciding between having a baby she can't afford to raise and doesn't want and a trip to a back alley abortionist about the grand scheme of things? As the saying goes "All politics are personal". Frankie |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: catspaw49 Date: 30 May 00 - 01:33 PM Yeah Kendall...seems gigantic, but in the grand scheme of things.......... Spaw |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: kendall Date: 30 May 00 - 12:33 PM if we end up with a republican president, AND a republican congress, abortions may once more move to Mexico along with the rest of our manufacturing base. No difference? tell it to the women, and, the American laborer. |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: catspaw49 Date: 30 May 00 - 09:33 AM Politics is a matter of methodology. Once the method is established, it doesn't matter who is in office, the system will go on with only minor changes in any direction. I wish that were an original thought, but it belongs to a great political philosophist named Jacques Ellul. Had we elected George Wallace in '68 things may have been different than they were, but the difference would have been marginal. Could Goldwater have significantly changed things? Did FDR ruin the country? Were we destroyed by Warren G. Harding? Did Wilson keep us out of WWI as was his desire? By the time any person reaches a position of authority in office, THIS sytem precludes them from making drastic and sweeping changes. Other systems/methodologies have different results, but when the method is established, the process will flow in that direction. Only revolution will make a sweeping change and that change would involve a change in methodology. When I hear how much better/worse things will be with candidate A or B for whatever office and then look at the results over time, I tend to believe that Ellul was right. What might have been is often just wishful thinking from both sides. Yeah, I know...You don't agree. That's OK. Its been a long time since the revolution and by all indications it will be quite awhile before another occurs. Spaw |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: Nathan in Texas Date: 30 May 00 - 08:58 AM Right on, JamesJim! I've always been puzzled as to why liberal folkies assume that they have sole proprietorship of folk music. |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: JamesJim Date: 29 May 00 - 11:32 PM If George wins, will the country survive? Man, I just don't know. A more conservative supreme court? Oh, be still my heart. Come on gang. Our constitution and our country have survived (and prospered) for over 200 years and we'll continue to do so no matter who is elected. All you "lefties," come on into the center a little and all that goes for all the "righties" as well. Look at it this way. If George wins, you'll have plenty of ammo (oops) for new folk music. Jim |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: GUEST,Mrr-in-DC Date: 29 May 00 - 11:42 AM OK, I have more info, and thanks for the Deep Springs blicky. According to Mom and Uncle Greg, Dad tended bar at a place called The Beehive in the late 40's, working his way through U of Chicago. Many famous jazzmen played the Beehive, but I guess Leadbelly was the only one that Dad thought worth bragging about. This would have been 46-48 or so, before meeting my Mom. Anyone with more info on The Beehive? I'm going to go look it up. |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: katlaughing Date: 29 May 00 - 10:18 AM Spaw! My twin! I KNEW IT! Yes, we watch Michael Mooore every opportunity, tho we don't have Bravo! Started following him years ago, brilliant and absolutely fearless. |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: catspaw49 Date: 29 May 00 - 09:54 AM So do any of you watch Michael Moore's TV show on BRAVO? He's the guy who wrote (and filmed) "Roger and Me" about the difference between corporate GM and its workers. He's Spaw's kind of activist....demented sense of humor with an emphasis on irony. Anyway, read all about his May 24 show and the "Bush vs. Bush Execution Competition." Revoke Huddie's pardon? Hell, it wouldn't surprise me if Georgie boy ordered a posthumous execution!!! Click Here to Read All About the "Great Race" You might also enjoy Michael's "African-American Wallet Exchange Program" where he passes out day-glo orange wallets in Harlem so the police will not make the mistake they did with Diallo. Like I said, he's a funny guy and often over the top. Good man. Spaw Spaw |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: kendall Date: 29 May 00 - 09:18 AM many people just dont realize that when they vote for a president, they are influencing the makeup of the supreme court for years to come. More judges like Clarence Thomas? not with MY help mister. |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: gillymor Date: 29 May 00 - 05:15 AM ...yup, and can you imagine an even more conservative Supreme Court. |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: kendall Date: 28 May 00 - 05:08 PM It makes a big god damn difference to me..if Bush wins, our president will be in the pocket of the NRA. And that aint paranoia talkin' either. |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: JamesJim Date: 28 May 00 - 01:23 PM Come on folks. Do you think Al Gore knows who Leadbelly is/was? Wasn't he the first guy to use a "Willie Horton ad" against his opponent? Let's face it. There are no "folkies" running for President. It will matter very little who wins this election - at least to me. Life will go on. Remember the Pete Seeger folk song, "How do I know my youth is all spent?" I love the line (names interchangeable) that says, "first Bush, now Clinton, I surely am vexed; but I'll still stick around to see what happens next." Here's the scenario: Bush wins and we change the words to "first Clinton, now Bush; then Hillary wins and we change them back. Peace to all! Jim |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: kendall Date: 28 May 00 - 12:51 PM Does he know who Leadbelly was you say? I wonder if he knows who NIXON was. H e has little knowledge of world leaders. |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: katlaughing Date: 28 May 00 - 12:50 PM Here's a "blicky" for Deep Springs College. Pretty impressive by reading the introduction, Mrzzy. I wonder if there is an equivalent for women? Also, it sounds as though you have a some tales of your own which would be pretty interesting. Thanks, kat |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: Rick Fielding Date: 28 May 00 - 12:13 PM Thanks Mrrzy Leadbelly spent most of the 40s in New York, but he travelled a lot. He was in Los Angeles for a year, played in France, spent lots of time in Texas, and from all accounts frequented a lot of bars. A search that has so far turned up nothing, is trying to find someone who knew/saw Robert Johnson, when he visited Windsor Ontario. Rick |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: Mrrzy Date: 28 May 00 - 11:55 AM I'll have to ask Uncle Greg if he knows anything; I know Dad went to Deep Springs college (if you've never heard of it, look it up, really worth checking out, wish I knew how to do a blicky) and it was likely in or around his college years, but it might have been right after the war and before he went to France. Anyone know where Leadbelly was in the 40's? When I heard about it, we were sitting around in Abidjan (I must have been 7 or so) listening to old folk songs collected at a festival somewhere in the 50's, and when Leadbelly came on singing The Grey Goose (nobody can Lawd Lawd Lawd like Leadbelly!), Dad mentioned him being his customer. He might have told more of the story then but I don't remember it. Only one of many on which I wish I'd gotten the lowdown before the terrorists got him... |
Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: gillymor Date: 28 May 00 - 08:19 AM This thread is giving me a nightmarish vision of Shrub Bush as folksinger singing Leadbelly,who according to legend sang his way out of prison, back into prison. I could see him in a 10 gallon Stetson striding up to the front of a thousand dollar a plate Republican fund raiser, putting his foot up on a chair and placing a $13 Stella across his thigh and singing:
If I had Leadbelly, Kat, I love your dog's sign. I use to have a retriever who couldn't talk and wasn't politically active but he could do a good imitation of an ambulance siren, the old long-wailing kind, in a low, quiet voice. Frankie |

Subject: RE: Gov. George Bush (Texas) & LEADBELLY?????? From: katlaughing Date: 28 May 00 - 12:22 AM Mrzzy, like Art, I'd love to hear more of that story, please? Thanks, KGH, it was in Mystic, CT that he walked the street to just across from where we voted. My daughter had him in tow. He was 1/2 dobie and 1/2 german shepherd and had a mouth (not barking, actually vocalising)on him that wouldn't stop. One of our favourite nicknames for him was "ole curmudgeon". The other was "pasta dog". There is a little ditty I wrote about the latter in Aine's Mudcat Songbook, to the tune of On Top of Spaghetti. It was pretty funny when some of Perot's campaigners tried to engage my daughter in some discussion, he drowned them out with his loud and boisterous cussing. He also knew how to say "I love you" but not for any politicians. He saved that for his *mom* and *girls* and the rest of the neighbourhood kids, whom he loved. Just had to put him down a little over a year ago; not a senile bit in his head, his body just went out from under him. It was pretty hard as he just didn't want to give up. kat |
