Think of it like this. Most kids/teens and even college kids are usually more liberal until they make their own money and have to pay into the system. Once they feel that way they tend to shift to the right as they age.

Celebrities don’t have to do that since they make ridiculous amounts of money and are mostly unaffected by the laws thrown against the rest of us. They stay to the left and try to connect with the younger generations to make money.

It’s not rocket science.

America became a beacon to the world because people could not only make a living wage, they could create generational wealth. Leftists should be called out every time they use that line

“Living wage”

Get the frick out of here commie.

You want a living wage? Study your arse off in school (in a STEM subject), don’t get pregnant, get someone pregnant, commit crimes, or dress like a freak.

Boom, living wage.

It’s that simple.

Everything else is an excuse by lazy losers.

He began his adult life by dodging the draft. He is also stupid, and thinks republicans are why jobs disappeared in the rust belt.

You bring up a good point. I was too young for Vietnam, but the sentiment we were conditioned to believe was - 'You're against the war, you're a draft dodging commie loving hippie'. That's final. None of this ' support the troops but be against the war' crap. That was all commie propaganda. And it didn't help with Jane Fonda gleefully taking a photo op on a AA gun turret used to shoot down US pilots. Or 'peaceniks' spitting on men in uniform as they came home.

And remember, Bill Clinton *LOATHED the military. Never forget that one.

Funnier still to see Liz and DICK Cheney, as big warmongers come, siding with Kamala and the Deep State.

They think we're deplorable, irredeemable trash, and if you think for yourself, you're a loony conspiracy theorist..



* His words, not some made up bilgesnipe lies they try to hang Trump with for things he never said.

Listen to the lyrics. They’re not patriotic.

Springsteen promotes sh!tty times, because he makes money off writing songs about sh!tty times. Too bad he doesn’t see his own immortality, because he’s in for some real sh!tty time.


Woah oh oh, I’m on fire

In the 1970s and early 1980s he was a working class hero based in Asbury Park, New Jersey. Since the late 1980s he has been a limosuine liberal based in Los Angeles.

Dick and John Kerry are strange bed fellows, to be sure. John tosses someone else's medals over a wall, claims them as his own, makes up fanciful stories on how US soldiers acted, and is hailed as some conscientious objector.

That's only part of one album. 40+ years ago. He's really much more influenced by Pete Seeger who was a socialist, quasi communist
