This Tom Waits character would be zotted in an instant if he dared to post his views here.

Which is why he doesn't post his views here.

However, his music is a different story.

If we had to apply a political litmus test to our music collections, we'd be left with Anita Bryant and maybe Donny Osmond, though I'm sure Freepers will dig up some dirt on him as well, such as being a Mitt Romney supporter.

Why that is, I don't know. But fact is, conservatives are not known for their musicianship. And please spare me the mentions of Ted Nugent, Gene Simmons and Hank Jr., et al. Those guys are caricatures and their musicianship is "sketchy".

I think Lee Greenwood is a very accomplished musician and is a Patriot. Similarly Ray Stevens fits that characterization as well. He's sold untold millions of records and absolutely despises the usurping Kenyan muzzie.
