“Why post a “song” by a far left wing group?”

Because many consider the Bealtes’ music to be quite good if not excellent and, love him or hate him, John Lennon was a fascinating character and talent.

Of course, I could just respond to your question with a question: Why not?

Poor pathetic people like Lennon never realize that “Power to the People” is a conservative principle.

"Poor pathetic people like Lennon" influence millions of people worldwide and help promote the bogus "peace" movement, which, to this day, is led by communist organizations which seek to undermine the US. In fact, ALL of the major "anti-war" coalitions around today (United for Peace and Justice, A.N.S.W.E.R. and World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime) were founded by communist orgs and/or individuals.

Because this guy is still worshiped by millions of Americans who viewed him as a man of 'peace, love and togetherness'.

...except in his dealings with Paul...

I loved John Lennin’s music but I think his left wing politics were just an extension of his inferiority complex and his manipulable personality.

I like the Beatles music a lot too, but mostly their earlier stuff. '8 Days a Week' was one of my favorites. Hey Jude was one of the few later ones I liked.
