At first I thought it was just harsh leftie humor, but then I see that it’s REAL!!
Damn.
When the folks on the right decide to eat their own, they don’t show any mercy.
Good to remember while in the voting booth.

This song came up in rotation on my music player - and its relevance rang true again. Especially in light of the recent fight with LifeBridge and the 4C corporation over the Union Annexation.
The lyrics speak so clearly.
“There’ll be nobody hiding,” says it all.
If you haven’t heard this song, by all means, go and buy it now. Van Morrison is one of the Great Masters (in my opinion anyway) and his rendition is powerful beyond words. The poetry of the lyrics is flat-out wonderful.
Rough God Goes Riding
Oh the mud splattered victims
Have to pay out all along the ancient highway
Torn between half truth and victimisation
Fighting back with counter attacks
It’s when that rough god goes riding
When the rough god goes gliding
And then rough god goes riding
Riding on in
I was flabbergasted by the headlines
People in glass houses throwing stones
Gaping wounds that will never heal
Now they’re moaning like a dog in a manger
It’s when that rough god goes riding
And then the rough god goes gliding
There’ll be nobody hiding
When that rough god comes riding on in
And it’s a matter of survival
When you’re born with your back against the wall
Won’t somebody hand me a bible
Won’t you give me that number to call
When that rough god goes riding
And then that rough god goes gliding
They’ll be nobody hiding
When that rough god goes riding on in
Riding on in
When that rough god goes riding
When that rough god goes gliding
There’ll be nobody hiding
When that rough god goes riding on in
Riding on in
There’ll be no more heroes
They’ll be reduced to zero
When that rough god goes riding
Riding on in
Riding on in
Riding on in
Riding on in
