“Keep Your Change”
Barack Obama, Country Western Music, Paul Ruark
Not the greatest Country Western song of all-time, but its heart is in the right place.
I’m afraid that I think he is way, way “too young to remember when you could keep most of what you earned.” I’m too young to remember that myself, and I’m so much older than he is that it isn’t funny. But I did enjoy the “I’ll take my guns/My home on the range/I’ll take my Bible/You keep your change” bit. It brought to mind images of liberal friends turning purple.
