Did JRE supporters ever defend his meeting with Mellencamp?

[maddiejoan]

And if they did, what was the defense? I can't imagine

[cali]

1. Yeah, because Mellencamp is just like

Mellon Scaife. Not. So what do you think of Hilly cozying up to a man who funds people who want to KILL gay people?

[maddiejoan]

2. I think the fact that you're making that observation

is hysterical.

I also think there is no "there" there.

[Inspired]

3. Defend it? Pffft! I was at an Edwards/Mellencamp event in January!

It was a grand thing.

6. Or --

-- so the Mellencampians would have you believe.

4. Thank god he pulled those BCGs to his forehead.

What sort of straws are you trying to grasp here? I can't imagine. :eyes:

8. I love John Cougar!!!

why?

In a song titled "Texas Bandito," he said Bush was "another cheap thug who sacrifices our young."

Farm Aid.

he coined the "ditch" phase in 04:
"You cannot expect the guy who drove the car into the ditch to navigate it out of the ditch. You have to put a new driver in the seat. I'm not saying the new driver is going to be any better, but we need a new driver. Kerry is the only choice."

He asked McCain to stop playing "our country" and "pink houses" at his rallies....said he may want to listen to the words first.

and his earlier music was really the soundtrack of my teenage years...

9. I understand they met in a little pink house down by the interstate...
