Tired of being tired of Bush? Go to the Bushwhackers’ site and watch the video for their song, “He Swapped the Bottle for the Bible.”
The Bushwhackers’ sound is traditional country, but don’t look for songs from their CD, “Beatin’ Round the Bush,” to be played on your local Hot Country format station. Not with lyrics like these:
He swapped the bottle for the bible
Now he might be liable
To blow us all to bits…won’t that be nice?
He swapped the bottle for the bible
He’s as stubborn as a child,
How did we make this crazy mistake twice?…A few more years, we won’t have to see his silly grin.
We’d be so much better off if he was three sheets to the wind.
Other songs on the CD include “Buckshot Dick,” “The Daughters Love To Drink,” and “Never Saw No Weapons.”
The group’s leader, Richard Levy, a former Herman’s Hermit, lives in my own hometown of St. Augustine, Fla.
Trish, I never knew you had a neighbor who was an ‘Erman’s ‘Ermit. See much of him hanging out at the bus stop?
Can anyone direct me to a site where I can learn about the effect years of alcohol abuse has on the medial temporal lobe and the prefrontal cortex affecting flexible thinking. I think that Bush and our country have a dry drunk at the wheel.
Greetings:
My college statistics teacher taught me from day one that “Liars figure” and “Figures lie,” and he would have used your graphs as pertinent illustrations. Even if you accept your graphs as factual, Bush has done an excellent job considering the population increases.
If you think that George Bush is the “worst President ever,” you must not be old enough to remember Jimmy Carter; author of double-digit inflation, double-digit unemployment and double-digit interest rates. As Reagan said, “A recession is when you neighbor loses his job; a depression is when you lose your job; and a recovery is when Jimmy Carter loses his job.” Reagan was exactly right, and the United States is in its third decade of economic prosperity since his election.
Our current economy is the greatest in our country’s history; over one-half of the “uninsured” are so out of personal choice. There is no reason for anyone to be without a job or to live in poverty.
Wake up!
