Don McLean did a creditable remake of this. I used to sing it for karaoke- have to have a wide range to cover Roy Orbison.
ANTIFA is now threatening TESLA dealerships because Muck is a Fascist. Of course if the do attack them the Justice Dept will just deny that it happened because ANTIFA doesn’t exist. Where are the Koreans when you might need them.
RIP Christine McVie Fleetwood Mac’s not so secret weapon.

Barry,
In 2000 in Florida, Gore henchmen instructed Dem counties to throw out thousands of legit military ballots in direct violation of a standing federal court injunction specifically requiring that they be counted. Strangely, the news media ignored this story. [Just as they ignored the story of how the media calling the election for Gore before polls closed in the panhandle cost Bush thousands and thousands of votes.]
Democrats know that military tends to favor GOP candidates so they’ve been working to disenfranchise and suppress military voters for decades.
If the parties were reversed in AZ, liberal screams would be deafening.
One of the concepts children learn quite young is the concept of fairness. Every parent has heard the plaintive wail, “No fair.” They understand the idea that rules must apply equally. And the beginning of moral development is the recognition that they should treat others as they wish to be treated.
Democrats lack the moral maturity of toddlers.
Can anyone find a liberal anywhere in America with any moral maturity at all? Perhaps even the moral maturity of a four year old? I don’t know any.
And so, I gather that there’s “nothing new under the sun”…(especially in the Sunshine State!)
But back to 2022…it would appear that Lloyd Austin is working hard bore at nipping this military voting, um, problem in the bud.

Just saw your post on “fairness”.
Clearly, the problem these days is that “fairness” is considered racist, sexist, colonialist, oppressionist, white supremacist, capitalist, zionist, etc.
Which is why the Democrats are fully and wholly ethical when they insist on stealing elections.
And why the finest minds in the country are being canceled…
How the country can dig itself out from under this is the challenge.
BTW — the blatant behavior in 2000 by the Gore legal team in instructing Dem county election commissions to throw out legal ballots in contravention of the federal court injunction was not punished at all. This demonstrates an enormous problem for our election integrity process.
We need to make it a serious felony to facilitate cheating in elections. The Gore lawyers in 2000 should have been disbarred. They conspired to deny people their constitutional rights. They engaged in blatant voter suppression. They committed crimes. Rules and laws which have no sting when violated are useless.
Elections should be serious and important. Wholesale mailing of ballots to the wrong people should be a crime by the public officials responsible. I’m serious. As long as this kind of blatant facilitation of fraud is winked at as a joke, we’ll get more and more.
We make criminals of business executives who mistakenly sign any financials or required disclosure that turns out to be wrong. Even innocent mistakes are crimes. But far more serious errors in conducting elections? Just an oops. Move along. Nothing to see.

You’re leaving out a material fact – which is that the uncounted ballots had arrived after the deadline. It’s a bit ironic that the Democrats were arguing to follow the letter of the law and exclude them, whereas the Republicans wanted them counted.

WHAT a voice!!!!
A radically different version of the same song embedded in a strange movie.

Quite a contrast in voices. Rebekah’s is the more solid and precise voice, but Roy’s is so unique and colorful.
Now do Luther Vandross.
What a voice.
Have you heard his cover of Dolly Parton’s “Jolene?”

Good video about her importance to the band.

Indeed, what a truly unique voice.
windbag,
That’s funny! And it does sound like Orbison. Interesting.
Dem Dems’re pretty clever…
