Showing the flag

John Prine, "Your Flag Decal Won't Get You Into Heaven Anymore", off of his first album John Prine. As I mentioned before, the sad thing about current history is that you can take the protest songs from 40 years ago, change a few geographic locations and a few politicians' names, and they're still as valid today as they were then... sigh!

  3. I couldn't help but notice how much Jeebus has grown in 40 years. Nowadays he loves him some guns and killing is OK if the people you shoot aren't white enough to get into the right church.
