New Max and the Marginalized song calling McCain/Palin out on all their hard work firing up the ugliest tendencies in their supporters. The video is just a little montage mostly of Bethlehem - hope you like "Hounds"!

HOUNDS

We're saying what we're saying, do what you're going to do with it
A slur or a slaying, we've got nothing to do with it
You can phone in contrition, Hollywood Listerine
Wash you mouth with detergent, your hands will never get that clean

'Cause when they call out the hounds there's no calling them back
Without blood on their mouths or a corpse on their backs
And I can hear all the howls for miles around
But it still takes a caller to call out the hounds

Derringers, Berettas, old movie Tommy guns
To finish up a vendetta that you're going to leave undone
No court would convict you, I'll hold you responsible
For an uptick in tension or worse, something far more demonstrable

'Cause when they call out the hounds there's no calling them back
Without blood on their mouths or a corpse on their backs
And I can hear all the howls for miles around
But it still takes a caller to call out the hounds

'Cause when they call out the hounds there's no calling them back
So duck your head out of bounds and brace for attack
Long after it's over, the odor will still stick around
In a faint ugly echo from when you called out the hounds

1. I'm in tears. Republicans have now resurrected racism.

2. In case of emergency, break glass
Yup, they're clearly aware that there's no chance of winning without relying on ugliness, and if they lose they will make sure that there is a bitter, vengeful base. Thanks for the recs, much appreciated =)

7. Great stuff!!
I've met a bunch of those folks here in central California. Met a gal yesterday that gave me a special flyer that is full of lies about Barack. As she handed it to me, she sorta leaned closer and said: "Here, you look like a good, red-blooded American male. The SICKENING code-speak of her comment wasn't lost to my caucasian ears. I wanted to:puke: right on her shoes!

8. Some of the dumbest, most rude and block headed Americans support mcOld and the pig
I haven't seen ANY clips of Senator Obama fans being that filled with rage and anger. What a sad bunch of supporters. Pathetic Americans.
