John Rich on Shuttin' Detroit Down

[djmighton]

keep up the most amazing work Sir,PPL up here in canada are no better bailing out canadian car companys (CEO/ OWNERS) but yet cant bail out our own pork producers its pathedic

[dietools]

@ferrariman1988 The unions has not only destoryed Detroit, they are well on their way to destory the country. Look what those over payed pimps are doing to Greece.

The none nunion workers are holding this country together and the union workers are making the Chinese smile all the way to the bank.

[ferrariman1988]

@dietools Yeah I understand the Chinese our banking off of our missfortunes.

Im gettin tired of these guys in nashville writing songs about people that are hurting yet never give anything back what family has john rich helped out? but yet he will sell us his song for $12.00 at wal mart, thanks john we appreciate it and the rest of fake nashville. That also includes hank jr.. I wonder how much john rich made from this and hank made from red white and pink slip blue. they should have given every dollar to people that need it if they care that much.

[Ericcharles1]

Like the song/message but Johns a fake! If he was the real deal hed be playn at union halls not these propaganda induced republican tea parties! And he sures as hell wouldnt be hangn with the clowns at Fox News! Buy american, UNIONIZE, listen to Alabama, and God B less the USA!

[Tankboy26]

@Ericcharles1 well, i agree with what you say with the exception of unionize... dont you know that is why our American auto companies have failed?? and why Detroit is in ruins (not the only reason, but a BIG one)

[504infantry]

Make one jump with the Airborne Mr. Rich. That'll wake 'em up. Maybe

[rambodivoll]

this song tells use about all of the hard shipes of working . the pepol are losing all ther jobes

[Tar1heel1]

You mean they don't know WHERE Detroit is? Whose the hillbilly...?

[EMUmonster]

I'm glad a celebrity has made a song about the problems we are in up here. This guys song hit home because its real and houses are becoming more empty on my block.

[chrijens]

How come the CEO of Meryl Lynch is not in jail or lost his buisness spending 1.2M to redecorate his office on the taxpayers dollar. tell me who the govwerment pulls for. they could give a damn less about anyone losing there jobs!

[JenQuigley]

You are so passionate...soooo passionate but there is more of a responsibility you should be taking then a cocktail on the tour bus. people are suffering. address that plus have the cocktail.

[rohag735]

John Rich is taking advantage of the terrible situation we're all in, for the sake of promoting his new CD and getting some air play. The bigger the hit, the more money in his bank account.

[holvolt]

I think he is just opening people eyes. Every other singer is earning money with their own stupid anti-country songs.

[JawsJaws]

Its getting worse with Obama. He is taking your money and sinking 1.6 million dollars of your money into handrails for our city's crackhead-filled projects. Yes I have the link.

[aminblues]

the song doesnt support the conservative side of the argument. It seems to support working people hardly the concern of the cons.

[mattpete105]

Let me establish some creditability before I ramble on here. I am farm raised, worked for everything I have, 100% country boy. I am sad to say, there are so many people tied into their anger, that the big picture is being ignored. I agree to an extent these bail outs are horrible, gov't would never do that for me, or any fellow farmers and laborers. But if bail outs don't happen, do you know how quickly our country will crumble? The US is like a machine, a main component fails and we all fail...

[ufbret]

Maybe someone should write a song about Obama taking 500 people over to Europe. He pulled military transports away from our troops to do it. On our dime.

How about a song about Pelosi"s jet that carries her cross country every other week, on our dime.

How about the banks that are trying to return bailout money WITH interest, yet Obama wont take it back - its all about socialism and government control.

[caroline7c]

where did you read about banks trying to return bailout money? I'd be interested to hear. thanks!

[ufbret]

Google "bank returns tarp"...I tried to put some in your comment box but it wouldnt work. WSJ Online has a good article:

Obama Wants to Control the Banks

There's a reason he refuses to accept repayment of TARP money

Also, Jp Morgan just announced today they also want to return the TARP money "tomorrow". YOu can google that. The smaller banks are being allowed to send tarp money bank, Obama isnt allowing the big guys, who control the market, to return it.

Good luck

[maybe2morrow]

Well said ufbret, unfortunately news like this is left for us to find by google when it should be front page news. although our "non bias" news wouldn't dare say something bad about the golden boy

[usmcrecon52]

obama pisses me off 2 ur not alone

[4762hrp]

Music for the Country - I like that! True that! Keep writin and singin those songs - we especially need them now!

[Smartbee2007]

Thank You John..This really hits close to home for my family and I. ..

[tree1309]

[stephmitch7]
