As well. And I'm not talking about man in the sky kind of god here .... That is also part of the rhetoric... I could go on ... No this message only serves as a piece of the evidence that this attempt to separate people into boxed oppositions has been in play a very long time ... And your comment ... Is evidence that in some people it has been fully integrated.... It blows me away that I can see how I fell into it as well ...

I've still got the cd - brilliant year of songs :)

[@zakofrx]

[@MasterOfKnowledge.]

@@zakofrx I don't know of JJJ (being a US native), but given people say that about a lot of things that have openly shown left-leaning roots they always had (and oddly so, assuming anyone even cares), Denis Leary very clearly made this back then to parody and make fun of middle class right-leaning and adjacent folk. So if anything, they'd congratulate him even more nowadays

[@McSwift]

@@MasterOfKnowledge. Leary is from Massachusetts. This song is basically every middle/working class Blue Dog Democrat in New England I grew up with. I don’t know his intentions, but being of his ilk I definitely don’t see this as specifically satirizing conservatism. It’s about class to me.

[@MasterOfKnowledge.]

@@McSwift Eh, could be. It just comes off as one of those songs that takes a dig at a lot of the crass, white-collar, more typically right-leaning crowd of folk just based on general stereotypes, ignoring any state- or region-based ones.

I bought it on cassette (that shows how old i am) when it first came out. There were a couple songs on one side and live stand up on the other side. The stand up was funny and this was the best song on it. The whole thing was good. That's when he broke out and became big time. He was the big man on the comedy circuit at that time and everyone wanted to book him on the night time talk shows. His comedy was edgy and it seemed like everybody, guy or girl, liked him. That type of comedy would be too offensive now. It would hurt someone's feelings. Back then it was perfect for the time and he made millions being an asshole and singing about it. Only in America.
