Milo and Cash. Posterboy’s of the “new” conservatism.

The right-wing press has managed to tunnel through the bottom of the barrel and are headed straight to Hell for the personalities they’ll prop up for the sheeple to bleat about and follow.

Cash was a prototypical SJW - an empty sack looking for a cause. Not surprising at all the “posterboy” makers are trying to recycle him into the latest and greatest Judas goat.

I was wrong.  The article doesn't ignore Cash's drug problem.
However, in their efforts to shoehorn Jesus into JC's music
they seriously overreach.  Case in point, these lyrics:

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine.
I keep my eyes wide open all the time.
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds.
Because you're mine, I walk the line.

From the article ---
That's just a touch deeper lyrically than "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On" and "Shake, Rattle, and Roll," both famously covered and performed by Elvis Presley. That's because Cash wasn't walking just any line. He was trying his best to walk a Christian line.
That's nice; but this stanza from the same song ---

I find it very very easy to be true.
I mind myself alone when each day's through.
Yes, I admit that I'm a fool for you.
Because you're mine, I walk the line.

Does that sound like he's pining for his soul, or an absent lover?
