This guy thinks the Left needs to distance themselves from some singer-songwriter I've never even heard of.

You guys are getting more ridiculous every day. Of course, Instapundit links approvingly.

As for this statement "If Anyone Still Thinks that no one on the Left identifies with every enemy of America..." Well, I'm sure there are people who identify themselves as Left, Right, Center, and Martian who have just about every opinion imaginable. But, we all knew that.


Are you clowns ever going to stop this game?

To put it another way: Who In Jeebus's name is Steve Earle and why the hell should I give a rat's ass what he says about anything? And why the hell should I be obligated to comment anytime he opens his mouth?

UPDATE: After reading the Post article, I concur with what Tresy says in my comments. What this song actually sounds like (Although unless I can see the full lyrics I have no way of knowing) is the kind of first-person character lyrics that many singer-songwriters use -- you know, singing AS a John Walker lover, or singing AS someone involved in incest, or singing AS someone who has just killed their wife. Or it may not be -- who knows? Who cares? It has nothing to do with me.

All of this is actually irrelevant to my comments above as there is no need for me, or anyone, to comment anytime someone says something that the right wing morons in Blogistan like to trot out as evidence of Andrew Sullivan's fifth column (making themselves look more and more ridiculous), but it does say a lot about the desire of those right wing morons writing for the Post who are attempting to do the same.
