Paul Westerberg is GOD!
It's that system of K.I.S.S. and some growling toned guitar that makes all of Paul's music felt to the common man like a rockin' good kick in the AZZ!

That’s a bit ridiculous! Maybe we should spend more on the war effort at home! Seems there are plenty of insurgents to go around and keep the military busy.
Might be cheaper to fund than Iraq too!

I personally know these people. It's true they cling to gun rights & religious ideology over their own economic hardships! Even though we all know losing gun ownership will never happen in America! Abortion & Gay Marriage will always be a sin, yet these are ideology fights that have already lost in the highest courts and are lawful many places. Even overturning legislation would drive these practices underground anyway! So why do so many bitter voters ignore the economic factor when they vote? I wish I knew, because so many of the ones I talk to are not willing to listen to reason. And that is the America we all have to live with!
TERRE HAUTE, Indiana (CNN) –- Barack Obama was forced Friday to defend comments he made at a recent fundraiser where he described some Pennsylvanians as "bitter."
Obama came under fire from Hillary Clinton and John McCain for his remarks just weeks before the Pennsylvania primary.
"When I go around and I talk to people, there is frustration, and there is anger, and there is bitterness," Obama began. "I want to make a point here."
"[Pennsylvanians are] frustrated and for good reason, because for the last 25 years they’ve seen jobs shipped overseas, they’ve seen their economies collapse. They have lost their jobs, they’ve lost their pensions. They’ve lost their health care."
Obama then said that politicians from both sides of the aisle have promised answers but that "nothing ever happens."
"So…they don’t vote on economic because they don’t expect anybody’s going to help them," Obama said, adding that they end up voting on issues that include gun rights, gay marriage, and faith.
He then directly hit Clinton and McCain, mocking their earlier attacks.
"Here’s what’s rich," Obama said. "Sen. Clinton says, 'Well I don’t think people are bitter in Pennsylvania. I think Barack’s being condescending.' John McCain says, 'Oh, how could he say that? How could he say people are bitter? He’s obviously out of touch with people. '"
"Out of touch?" Obama said. "I mean, John McCain, it took him three tries to finally figure out that the home foreclosure crisis was a problem and to come up with a plan for it, and he’s saying I’m out of touch?"
"Sen. Clinton voted for a credit card sponsored bankruptcy bill that made it harder for people to get out of debt after taking money from the financial services companies, and she says I’m out of touch?"
He concluded his argument by telling the audience that it is, in fact, the opposite.
"No. I’m in touch. I know exactly what’s going on. I know what’s going on in Pennsylvania, I know what’s going on in Indiana, [and] I know what’s going on in Illinois. People are fed up."
