Bio
I'm married with two daughters and have been teaching at a state university in a red state for 21 years. My blogging covers a lot of issues but I'm a progressive kind of guy who tends to focus on political process, conservatism, and religiosity. Living in the Bible Belt gives me a little different though not necessarily more friendly perspective on conservatism. I also get in the occasional sports post.

The Rand Paul Memory Song

Rate: 0 Flag

In my attempt to capture the spirit of Rand Paul, I've made an adjustment to Barbra Streisand's "The Way We Were."  My humble apologies to Ms. Streisand even though the movie was overblown crap.

 The Rand Paul Memory Lane Song

Mmm. Mmm.

Memories, of before we fell behind

Misty watercolor memories of Eighteen Fifty Five

Scattered pictures, of a time when just white men could vote

Women had no say back then

That’s the way we were

You and me we loved our slaves

Our kids worked in factories and mines

If you were old and starved to death, you’d blame yourself

Wouldn’t you?  Couldn’t you?

Memories, of a time that was beautiful and yet

It’s important to remember

Of what we're glad we can't forget

That we can have it all back now

If we simply vote Rand Paul

We can recapture, We can recapture

The way we were.

Hopefully I can get somebody to swallow their pride and sing this at a local forum tomorrow.
