I saw a picture of Mike Huckabee playing bass in the newspaper today. If you search You Tube there's a bunch of clips of him playing. He's not bad, sort of "weekend-warrior" level of playing. He's still a dad-gum Republican though!

Please learn something about his policies.... or tell me you were kidding.
Even kooky, ignorant rapist-pardoning goober preachers can play the bass. |

Now listen Jeremy, I play all types of music  (How do you think that son of mine heard all that jazz growing up? )Yes, I may live in Nashville and I even like some country music, but I grew up playing R&B in Philly, PA, and I'm a dyed-in-the-wool, Yankee liberal, dad-gum-it! Seriously, Nashville isn't all "red" by any means. Al Gore lives here for chrissakes! And it isn't all country music either -- musicians like Victor Wooten, Edgar Meyer, Jim Ferguson, Jeff Coffin and Chester Thompson all live in Nashville, too. So stop stereotyping already!
BTW, some of my best friends are Republicans |

Sorry to be the bad guy, but if we go any further down the political path with anything less than light hearts and a full load of mirth, this thread is history...

It was intended as joke. Really I'd say, "Whatever your political persuasion, make sure to get out and vote!" |
