Do you have any pertinent examples ?

Other than Zachary B. Wolf who is a purveyor of propaganda .

Are you implying that every parent with children in schools are Republicans ?

Pretty much of an azzhole speculation, wouldn't you say?

But look at the bright side. Brandon will possibly be able to gift them some new military hardware, and leave even more advisors to hang out and dry. It's proven to be what he does best (among other things.)

Actually, I had changed this to "Pretty libelous speculation, wouldn't you say?"

But of course, it didn't save. (Obviously.)
In any event, it was directed to the speaker. Not the subject of the comment. As if I needed to explain that to you.

We're in a cul-de-sac here. Likely, it's only "williegoat" who can find the way out.

This makes no sense. So, all I can do is tell you what I told another member in a recently closed thread: "I can help you find your shoes, but I am not a tour guide. The path you choose must be your own."

steppenwolf monster meaning in context to the time

it is not the 60's vibe of LBJ in 68

and very much in the anti-nixon 69 change in mood
from hope to fighting in the streets and days of rage
that the shift to THE DARK SIDE happened

------------------
Question wonder and be wierd

Excerpt from an interview with John Kay:
 
quote
This was a social-political concept album wherein we spoke our minds about the times we were living in. Our first cross-country tour in 1968, that was a year when America was on fire. King had been assassinated that spring, Robert Kennedy was murdered that summer, and very late in that summer, during the Chicago Democratic Convention, there were thousands of people demonstrating in the streets chanting, "The whole world is watching."

And there were cities ablaze from riots in the streets because of the killing of King and other reasons. We had lots to contend with as citizens. The Vietnam War was in full swing. There were demonstrations against that war in all the cities and on the college campuses. So, these times were what caused us to write the Monster album.

This is why I said 1968 in my first post in this thread. You chose to "correct" me because the album was recorded and released in 1969.

In my second post, I posted this picture:



Do you even know who these people were? How many can you name without looking them up? They are relevant to the quote from Kay, above.

So that some don't think we have both gone crazy, the guy on the right is Tom Hayden and the guy on the left wrote a book titled "Steal This Book".
