Willie has been on the left forever and what
makes you think different I don’t know.
In Willie’s early years, he drank a lot, a really lot. He beat his wife regularly, One night he came home raving drunk and passe out in his bed. She sewed him up in the sheets and beat him to a pulp with a baseball bat. He was lucky to survive. A decided pot was a better alternative. Later he got into tax issues, guess the pot made him forget to pay, so the IRS helped him to remember. He got his friends to hold concerts for him to pay off his debts. He also sold a golf course for a buck to a friend to keep it from the IRS and later got it back. Not much of an American Idol, but did have a pretty good twang in his prime.
