This is a case of 60 something man from another generation showing his patriotism.
Granted it’s not my sort of song, but his voice is a heck of a lot better than most rappers that you hear on the local radio station.
It sort of figures that it would offend some on this forum. Rather we have Janet Reno doing the lesbian cha cha…now you would have no problem with that I bet.
Well the lyrics were kind of hokey and the backing music had sort of an elevator-muzak quality to them, but Ashcroft isn’t too bad of a singer in all honesty. He’d probably be a hit if he sang some Bing Crosby and Sinatra standards at a beltway karaoke bar.
Ah, now those with absolutely NO EAR for music are chiming in. Set aside the propagandic content, the tune itself is trite as the lyrics, he no sense of phrasing, and although he can hit a pitch, his tonal quality is appalling.
Joseph Wilson was sent to Niger to confirm a theory that Iraq was trying to buy yellow cake Uranium. According to Wilson, he was asked to misrepresent his findings, which he refused to do. Cheney was FURIOUS, then reportedly said in a meeting that they were going to give him the “work up”. Shortly after that, someone revealed the name of his wife, Spate, to Robert Novack, who said it publically.
As a CIA operative while she was on a mission related to this investigation her cover was blown and her life was in danger. Despite this negativity, Bush went on to TV against the advice of his intelligence agencies, and announced that we had found out that indeed they WERE purchasing YCU, which Wilson had very spefically told them was not true. Bush testified to congress about the evidence. Yes, Democrats, even Kerry voted yes on the war based on this information because it painted a daming picture of Iraq’s intent and ability to build Nukes.
Only problem is that Bush LIED about it. It has Bush and Cheney nervous enough that they have both retained the services of private lawyers for the beginning of the leak. It was either Cheney or Bush, but whoever did it is facing real treason charges, not just the charge that Ann Coulter likes to throw around to anyone with leftward leanings. We are talking about breaching national security, which can have the harshest of all punishments. These are more serious charges than Clinton faced when wondering about the Blue Dress.
In closing, Bush gave false testimony to congress, and he knew as he delivered it that it was not true. In addition to that, he is party the revealing of a high security top secret operative. That is a LIE! There are others, but I am falling asleep, so they’ll have to wait.
Rot Batty…you work soooo hard to make us change our minds! ha! As I have said: WE will be roasting you and other’s raisin sacks come November…on looong skewers. Those with clanging balls of steel will STILL support the president’s war on terror and war for American Freedom.

You seem to have an unhealthy fixation with other dudes raisins and balls. Could this be sub-conscience or latent impulses finally coming out under the guise of liberal hostility? Also could you not put in a request to get over to Iraq? From the hostile action still going on it seems medical officers would be in high demand! They could definitely use a raisin skewering guy like you over there!
