Earlier tonight I finished watching the two part Frontline story "The Divided States of America". It was extremely painful!
Having to relive all of those tragic and painful moments of the last 8 years. For example the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting (referred to as "Newtown" in the program). All those children gunned and innocent people gunned down and NOT A SINGLE thing came out of it to prevent it from happening again and again and again...
And to add to the torture, they had all these sound bites from conservative talk radio. I can't stand Rush Limbaugh, his voice just grates on me and the dumb ass shit he spews makes me sick. And then there was Sarah Palin, sigh!
I can't see how President Drumpf* can possibly improve the situation,
he has already unleashed the hatred, the racism and the sexism. I'm getting depressed again about this whole mess... it is extremely frightening!
Anyway, this song is from one of my favorite albums. As I mentioned in my post clear back on 9-October-2011, I'm guessing originally bought it around 1970 or 1971 without a sleeve and finally bought a legitimate copy at Smokey's Records in the 1990's:
The live version from 1967 (2 years before the album was released) has different words... I guess they were still working on it :)
