Sweet Neo-Con

That's a good point. However, IMO the Stones peaked in the Beggar's Banquet/Let it Bleed/Sticy Fingers/Exile on Main Street era. Everything after that is vanilla rock and roll (or disco for a short period). There's no doubting they are a great rock and roll band but getting better? Sorry. Lastly ole Mick lost his voice long ago; he no longer sings but shouts and talks with the music but you gotta love the energy.

Lugnut, thanks for giving us "the facts". Without your direction I can't imagine the quagmire we would get ourselves into. Of course, your opinions, I'm sorry, your facts, would be the same if the Stones had written a song lauding the neo-cons.

Hey, it's only rock 'n roll and it's a gas, gas, gas!

Onhwy61,

You're more correct than you realize. I'm equally angry with the knee jerk, too greedy, far right and criticize them in these threads too. Anyone that doesn't believe in the power of peer pressure (positive and negative) and potential damaging tribalism that is growing in this country have their heads burrowed deeply in the sand. You are always welcome to contact me offline for further discussion either through email or phone so that we don't get this thread deleted. At least I got your attention, huh?

Lugnut- I'm curious. Who is your favorite: Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly or Dr. Laura Schlessinger? And do you listen to them using a tube, or solid state tuner?

Lugnut, you state:

The Stones rate right up there with Harry Belefonte for not knowing how to reason.

I'm not sure what you're refering to concerning Harry Belefonte. Could you explain? Thanks.
