Methinks JCM's Small Towns should be the campaign theme song for McCain.

Well I was born in a small town And I live in a small town Prob'ly die in a small town Oh, those small communities

All my friends are so small town My parents live in the same small town My job is so small town Provides little opportunity

Educated in a small town Taught the fear of Jesus in a small town Used to daydream in that small town Another boring romantic that's me

But I've seen it all in a small town Had myself a ball in a small town Married an L.A. doll and brought her to this small town Now she's small town just like me

No I cannot forget where it is that I come from I cannot forget the people who love me Yeah, I can be myself here in this small town And people let me be just what I want to be

Got nothing against a big town Still hayseed enough to say Look who's in the big town But my bed is in a small town Oh, and that's good enough for me

Well I was born in a small town And I can breathe in a small town Gonna die in this small town And that's prob'ly where they'll bury me

How sweet it would be if some group were to sing that song in a forum where Obama was speaking!

Instead of clinging to my guns and religion, I’m getting endless mileage on the “clinging to my guns and religion” jokes. Yep, excuse me, it’s been a while so I have to cling to my gun now. While reading my bible of course.

Don’t forget that you’re also clinging to racial resentment. Because Barry doesn’t know one person in the big city that clings to racial resentment.

I don't see myself as resentful. No, it's more like bitter. Bitter that there are people that are different than me, as someone recently put it.

Not long ago, John Mellencamp demanded that McCain fundraisers cease playing his songs such as ‘Our Country’ and ‘Pink Houses.’ He is a friend of John Edwards and a Dem.

That’s too bad. Oh, well. At least we can speculate that he won’t appreciate Obama using them either. I wonder what Obama’s song will be.

Oh if only the government would supply all our needs. We wouldn't need guns or God anymore. /sarc

It's blatantly obvious that this is the ultimate goal of both the false messiah and the beast. Hussein reminds me of the Wizard of Oz, all flash and sparkle, until you pull back the curtain and see the small, impotent shill of a man he really is.
