Crosby sang a solo bashing Enron and corporate executives who steal from the little guy and get away with it.

"Ain't no different than taking your money with a gun," he sang.

Think he took Terry McAuliffe to task for turning a $100,000 investment into $18million and watching the company go under?

I guess Melissa Ethridge doesn't want anymore kids, so these blowhards need to do SOMEthing to feel alive.

Next time say YES to the prune juice enema at the Home. Dudes.

[RavenATB]

Is there even one among them who can generate a single calorie of mental energy?

I think not!

Most of the people who follow those clowns have spent a lifetime trying to justify the stupidity of their youth...guess where that's gotten them.

I'm just amazed that Crosby is the alive.

Old Hippies never die, they just smell that like they have.

[ladyinred]

How sad, all of my favorites of the past and present are just making it so that I can no longer listen to them in any venue. Wish they would just "Shut up and sing!" ( catchy title!)

[Billthedrill]

I'm thinking that Mr. Tony Nauroth isn't old enough to have been around for the original version.

[SupplySider]

I liked Buffalo Springfield, I liked The Byrds, and I liked the Hollies, but I never liked CS&N. I was there for their famous Woodstock set and it did nothing for me.

Good rule of thumb: never take advice from somone who had to replace his liver.

[dennisw]

Correct!

[Mr. Silverback]

Why has John "Fning" Kerry accused me of being a War Criminal? Viet Nam APR 70- NOV 71)

Thank you so much for serving!

[Mr. Silverback]

Fellow wingnut here, a KC-135 Crew Chief and my wife was a weather observor. How about you guys?

[Lijahsbubbe]

Did they almost cut their hair today?

Pwaah! They don't have to anymore...snicker.

[Lijahsbubbe]

just smiles and remembers those incredible days from 1963 to 1974 (aka, "the sixties")

They say if you remember the sixties, you weren't really there.....

[Lijahsbubbe]

How sad, all of my favorites of the past and present are just making it so that I can no longer listen to them in any venue. Wish they would just "Shut up and sing!" ( catchy title!)

I wonder why we grew up and they didn't?

[eddie willers]

I liked Buffalo Springfield, I liked The Byrds, and I liked the Hollies, but I never liked CS&N.

First two albums were masterpieces...like The Band's first two.
Then...phhhttt

[MikalM]

Agreed! The first one especially -- a great evocation of the gentler side of hippie culture. I think they've pretty much coasted on the rep of those two discs for the past 34 years...

[tortoise]

What really chaps my hide is that these Baby Boomers think whatever they did in their youth is somehow fantastically important, that I should give a crap for some reason as though that was the pinnacle of civilization. There are, what, two generations in the US that can vote that basically don't remember the period of time that the Kerry campaign is fixated on.

Give me a frickin' break and go away already. Not only do I not care what they did in the '60s, but what they did is about as profound as pinching a loaf after taco night at the local bar. No matter how they spin it, I am underwhelmed by it all.

actually young is as left as the other 3 are.
after all he is canadian.
shame too. i play guitar and do alot of his stuff but it kills me that he is anti bush.

[537cant be wrong]

thats kool.
i still have long hair.
i just wear it on the inside now, kinda crowds out my lonely few brain cells though.
