What Are the Conservative Protest Anthems?

That new Skynyrd song "Red, White and Blue" would qualify, as well.

[Warhead W-88]

It's not "crinch pin." It's "Pledge pin." Those words are provided by Niedermeyer from Animal House, reprising his lines from that movie.

Metal and hard rock is often conservative or libertarian in nature. Such as:

Iced Earth
Metallica (Hetfield, anyway)
Sammy Hagar
Alice Cooper
Ted Nugent
C.C. DeVille of Poison (I think Bret Michaels might be a Conservative too)

[RockinRight]

You're right! I cut and pasted it and didn't proofread well.

For your consideration, THE greatest kick-a$$ song ever written, to be taken in the context of 2004 rather than 1971:

Won't Get Fooled Again

We'll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgement of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again

The change, it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fold, that's all
And the world looks just the same
And history ain't changed
'Cause the banners, they are flown in the next war

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
No, no!

I'll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
Though I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do ya?

There's nothing in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Are now parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no!

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss

Heard one on Hannity's show set to the tune of "Who Let The Dogs Out?"

"Who's in the White House?
BUSH! BUSH-BUSH-BUSH!
Who's in the White House?"

Chant that and see the liberals start to boil.

[RockinRight]

In the 60s, there was a "liberal revolution" against the establishment. It has come full circle.

Re: We're Not Gonna Take It

Er, while this may sound like a good tune be aware it's also the theme song for liberal talker Stephanie Miller :)
But she's not too well known (yet)

[RockinRight]

We had it first!

Hilarious

America F Yeah! - Team America...

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

Iced Earth is an awesome band. I got their 1st CD as a promo from my friend who worked in a music store. I was listening to them and people would stop and ask who they were. I have been listening ever since.

Liberals: folk music
"If It were up to me/ I'd take away the guns"
--Cheryl Wheeler

Conservatives: country music
"'Cause we'll put a boot in your ass, it's the American way/ And Uncle Sam put your name at the top of his list/
And the Statue of Liberty started shaking her fist/
And the eagle will fly and there's gonna be hell/
When you hear Mother Freedom start ringing her ball/
And it will feel like the whole wide world is coming down on you/ Aw, brought to you courtesy, Of the Red White
and Blue"--Toby Keith

[RockinRight]

That'll work!

Absolutely what I was thinking. Another one that immediately sprang to mind from Sylvester Stewart:

Stand!

Stand
In the end you'll still be you
One that's done all the things you set out to do
Stand
There's a cross for you to bear
Things to go through if you're going anywhere
Stand
For the things you know are right
It's the truth that the truth makes them so uptight
Stand
All the things you want are real
You have you to complete and there is no deal
Stand. stand, stand
Stand. stand, stand
Stand
You've been sitting much too long
There's a permanent crease in your right and wrong
Stand
There's a midget standing tall
And the giant beside him about to fall
Stand. stand, stand
Stand. stand, stand
Stand
They will try to make you crawl
And they know what you're saying makes sense and all
Stand Don't you know that you are free
Well at least in your mind if you want to be
Everybody
Stand, stand, stand

"Take This Job and Shove It"

Sung right before one becomes unemployed...

Just about anything from Team America works. ;-).

Then there's my favorite - Get Over it by the Eagles.
