"You might be unAmerican if . . ."

READER HUGH THORNER WRITES: "You might be unAmerican if . . . A Vice Presidential candidate schmoozes a crowd by calling them pro-American and you immediately think you're being called un-American."

#5  For some people the shoe not only fits, it's a well-worn loafer that they barely even realize they're wearing. And those are the kinds of people Barack Obama has found himself among, even from an early age in Frank Marshall Davis.

It isn't that he shares all the views of all of them, but the fact that he must feel comfortable around them makes one wonder why he'd even WANT to be president over such a nation as he's been hearing about.

#4  I wouldn't dream of making that judgement, Ian dear, but you are a bit silly. If you spend all your money on butter, someone nasty who spent his on guns can easily walk up and take your butter away. In the meantime you'll have only a bit of a paunch and hardened arteries to show for it.

You will notice that although I disagree with your proposition, and find both your lyrics and melody oversimple and derivative, I have done nothing to prevent you from displaying your thoughts anywhere you'd like except my living room.

You are correct, though, that it is precisely as relevant as it was four years ago. What have you learnt since then?

#3  I wrote a song and made a video about being labeled "Unamerican" during the 04 election. Sad to think it's still as relevant today as it was 4 years ago. Guess I'm "unamerican"

"(Didn't Know I Was) Unamerican" (flash video)

#2  You know the dog that's been hit, since it's the one that barks.
