Republicans refuse to honor the Boss.
I think the Republicans are creased that they just realized 'Born in the USA' is, essentially, an anti-war song. Hmmm, maybe try Rage Against the Machine's 'Killing in the Name'... except, no, that one's being ironic too. Better just stick to the IQ-stunting, ethnocentric, pro-war redneck crap, since that is what's really influencing Americans these days.
Time to accept that our government is now so divided and defensive that they can no longer work together. I think we should let the creators of Sesame Street run Washington. They did such a good job with that show, I just think they deserve a shot. They always seemed to understand the concept of cooperation. Plus, they had muppets.
