Subject: RE: BS: The Tea Party- New & Improved Thread...
I just re-read it....I don't even know how you contrived how you got whatever you got, out of what I said...BUT...its not the first time!
So, I'll say what I was saying in real simple terms, because you seem to have difficulties with understanding what some one ELSE says. The peace movement of the '60's was co-opted by the Democratic Party.
Johnson was a Democrat.
Johnson escalated the war.
As the war grew more unpopular, the Democrats, in order to gain a base, co-opted the peace movement.
RFK was, I believe genuine.
McGovern was weak.
See Dick run.
See hung over wannabe folk singers, whose heyday was in the '60's still don't get it.
See wannabe political activists, don't understand why people are not interested in their music.

What don't you get???
Never mind...I can't believe I've spent so much time on you two over bullshit partisan politics...I just thought you were into music more that trying to be included into the numbers of the tragically 'hip'.

...but even back then, we had an expression, which holds true today... "'Turn on' a lame, and what you get is a 'turned on' lame".

No wonder.
