H'wood types like Kid Rock are very few and far between.
I STILL think he's an asshole, though.
Kid Rock never forgot where he came from. The sticks of Northern Macomb.
I have a newfound respect for Kid Rock... He's not as dumb as I thought he was. He knows when someone is lying to him.
Way to go Kid!
Look up the "DixieCrats" and explain that to them! The only reason that blacks feel the democrats are 'for blacks' is because JFK signed the civil rights bill. Not many have moved forward since.
The same bill the Republicans made sure got to JFK's desk.
Ah yes, you're correct, the Civil Rights Act was signed into law in 1964.
Surprise..another renegade!
Now cut the hippy hair, shave yourself, quit acting like a piece of trash, and I'll be proud to have you represent my views.
Ted Nugent, Kid Rock...(sigh)
Why is it that the only conservative rockers seem to be, well, nuts?
WHY you say ? Because were so used to being drilled with Politicly Correct Junk that when someone who isnt PC speaks out people think they are Crazy!
But they arent crazy they are more open and honest than most and arent afraid to show it !
The same bill the Republicans made sure got to JFK's desk.
Actually, if you're talking about the Civil Rights Act (1964) and the Voting Rights Act (1965), they were both signed by LBJ after JFK had been killed. Also, many 'Rats tried to filibuster the bills (including Al Gore, Sr. on the first one), and the GOP saved them by voting in higher percentages in both the House and Senate for each of them.
The "Jim Crow" laws and segregation were both products of the 'Rat Party, and Woodrow Wilson even tried to ban blacks from civil service jobs.
A black friend of mine, who holds a J.D., used to work as a stockbroker, and has now been in higher ed for about five years, said during the Reagan funeral that his tax cuts were the most significant civil rights legislation since the enactment of the 14th Amendment, and when you think about it, he's probably right. They were responsible for more blacks and poor people in general reaching the economic "promised land" than just about anything else in our history, and there's been no law that couldn't have been affected simply by a vigorous enforcement of the 14th!
Whenever I get into a discussion about race, with a Dem or a Pubbie, I make sure to put the truth on the table. Its fun watching the 'Rats sputter "But, but..."
atomic Punk great picture.....
WTG ..
No, I simply think Nugent and Kid Rock are nuts. They don't seem like they're "all there." A few slices short of a whole loaf. I agree with them politically (most of the time), but I think they're both wackos, personality-wise. Then there's Gene Simmons. Need I say more?
There are plenty of cool conservative country artists, but the right-leaning rockers are all a bit loony.
