That Old Feeling Again (American Spectator article by Freeper)

ms.cindy is a tool of the left. Willing, but nevertheless, a tool to be used against the President and truth be told, against America too.

Barry Manilow may have penned "I go crazy", but Paul Davis made it famous in the 1970s, along with his other hit "Sweet Life".

[Cyber Liberty]

Manilow wrote it (as well as a *lot* of other songs that became popular under different artists), but Paul Davis cut the version that sold the records and was heard by everybody.

Manilow probably did his own version at some time....

Jews in Palestine

You mean Israel?

[crushkerry]

Thanks. But I can't take credit for it. Pat Hynes wrote it, and contrary to popular belief by some, I'm not him. (Thank God)

Great article. It amazes me how many disappointments the left goes through and just moves on to the next outrage. The anti war effort will be another defeat. No matter what polls they use none of them show that the American people want to cut and run. They lump in people that want to escalate the war on terror with people that think the war is useless and say polls show Americans have lost faith in the effort.

Then, my compliments to your friend. :>)

Cindy Sheehan: Once again, the left's hatred of the right trumps national security.

It's the "Michael Moore effect". They think the whole world is on their side while they succeed in only preaching to the choir.

Take a close look at the picture and note who the artist and composer are:

You're internet searches showed Manilow because he did a cover version of Paul Davis' hit song on an album featuring hits from 1978.

[Cyber Liberty]

There you go. I got confused because Manilow was one of the most prolific songwriters of the early-mid '70's.

[SubSailor]

"Geez...get over it. You're response is like searching for fly fecal matter in pepper.

I said it was a good article did I not? I just find it ironic that the author didn't bother to get the facts straight in an article jumping on others about not getting facts straight.

[r9etb]

Again, that old feeling ... whatever the exact opposite of Schadenfreude is.

Outstanding line.

[AppyPappy]

So now it's the Cindy Sheehan show that's got you wrapped around the axel

Axel?

ax·el ( P ) Pronunciation Key (ksl) n. A jump in figure skating that is initiated from the outer forward edge of one skate, followed by one and one-half midair turns and a return to the outer backward edge of the other skate.

" You're internet searches showed Manilow because he did a cover version of Paul Davis' hit song on an album featuring hits from 1978."

Then I rest my case. Manilow sang the song, and the author properly referenced the lyrics as sung by Manilow. And really, who GAF who wrote it? Any number of singers get public recognition and credit for songs they didn't write. People remember the artist, not the writer.

Manilow sang the song, and the author properly referenced the lyrics as sung by Manilow. And really, who GAF who wrote it?

Manilow never had a hit as suggested by the author. Paul Davis is the one who had the hit. Manilow did an obscure cover of the song that was probably never played on a radio station anywhere. I bet Paul Davis GAF who wrote it. Apparently you don't GAF about getting facts correct. So, are you like the democrats in the article and just believe any little thing you read as long it fits your distorted view of events?

RE:You all are so mean to me. I have every right to say "Our Country is not worth defending" and the accompanying picture...

There is a famous picture of Anita Hill with a "terribly pained" expression that was everywhere during the Clarence Thomas hearings. If anyone has it that would be an interesting juxtaposition - we could call it the "Politics of Pathos".
