Yeah, Steves been clean since like 94 or 95... so shut up about him "takin a hit" before his "illutrious speeches". Oh and Dogloop24, he was born in Virginia and raised in Texas.... so that kinda fucks up your whole damn yankee thing.

@duckotadog ... Um he has 30 years worth of amazing songs, and I might be pretty biased on saying their amazing but he has alot of songs with commercial success and other amazing songs that arent as popular. So ya more than "one mediocre song"
Steve was criticizing Reagan 25 years ago - shouldn't surprise anyone that he is a leftie, though it does. Folks didn't listen very carefully to songs like Snake Oil. To be fair though, he would say he is much further to the left than Obama, and has been critical of Obama since the election on issues like the war.
Sorry I missed the humor... had a recent conversation with someone who assumed Steve was a libertarian, based on his early work (which was never right leaning, but not as explicitly left). That probably spilled over into my comment.
I admire that Steve Earle has promoted peace and equality of Muslims, which is great. The Muslims have reason to be mad, but the Jews aren't to blame. The orthodox Jews are peaceful and don't support these endless wars. AIPAC is a pro-war interest group who continues to lobby for America to go to war in the middle east as they did with Iraq. The Zionists may be of Jewish blood, but their faith is a radical Christian denomination centered around pro-war attitudes.
Obama turned out to be another Bush, spending billions on U.S. tax dollars to invade sovereign nations and force them to change their form of government. Bush was the MOST liberal Republican president we ever had. They promote imperialism and globalism by trying to force every nation in the world to turn into another America. Just because a nation isn't a democracy doesn't mean they're a threat. It's time to spend U.S. tax dollars to heal our weak economy and rebuild our decaying infrastructure.
Nope, he has gotten clearer. He has always been to the left on most issues, though maybe less explicitly - there are songs on Copperhead Road and his other early albums which criticize Reagan and HW Bush.
Steve has been clean sinsce 1995 by all accounts I(his own and biographers relying on family and friends.) I think he just naturally talks a mile a minute.
Shut the HELL UP. How does Allison put up with that crap, standing there like a test pattern, obviously the other 4 didn't. Moron talking about Morons.
as much as l like you steve and always will...you ...wait long enogh and YOUR guy YOU voted for will let you down too...COME on your old enough to KNOW this!!! SING....did Townes teach you anything
@BassBuffett It's appears that you're already drinking the Kool-Aid, Pal. Suggestion: Live in Cuba for about 6 months, and see how you like it. Then we'll see if you make the same asinine statement. If you would - Why not stay there! Palin is NOT presidential material. She was a last ditch tactic that McCain tried to muster women's votes. If he were smart, he would have chosen Condi Rice. She would have not only embarrassed Biden in the debates, but we would have had faith in the #2 spot!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Steve, great musician, but on a personal level, you have absolutely no clue about real life. A touch maybe, but your idealistic goals mark you as fool, which is sad after all of your personal turmoil and troubles. I won't be listening to anymore of your music
@BassBuffett You're a pussy, Pal. If either you, me, or Barrack Obama were being tortured on a day-to-day basis, and the captors would allow you to leave . . . we would jump at the chance! The Commies wanted to use him for propaganda. McCain told them 'No Way' ; there were POW's that were being held longer than him, and he refused to be released unless they went first. That's a Hero - That's real character, and something that's lacked in today's crop of Mandarins running this country.
I love Steve Earle but hate when he or any celebrity goes political one way of the other. Politicians listen to lobbysits and the average American (99.9% of the population gets screwed). Always has been, always will. Look at all the politicians that have gone to jail lately.
righton steve, say as you beleive it , and to anyone that differs, may they kiss the @ss or bend so far over that when this new Government dry Fu86s them they feel all the way to there teeth
you are absolutley right,it is not the immigrants comeing here and stealing our jobs,it is outsourcing to mexico,NAFTA,thanks to your buddy bill clinton,why dont you mention that when you are spouting your anti republican jargon.
I don't believe for a second any individual wants an outright ban of the death penalty, only a stricter process to determine what justifies receiving it.
Did Timothy Mcveigh not deserve death after the premeditated murders of 168 men, women, and children? Should war criminals simply spend life in prison after killing thousands or even millions?
so who says its ok to kill? you, the government..who? who's got the blood on their hands in that case. some criminals if put in with the general population instead of being protected on isolated wings or kept on death row for years will meet an untimely death at the hands of other criminals and save a whole lotta money. i dont think you as a nation is civilised until you take care of your sick and dont kill as a collective, you can at least oppose your goverments crazy killing sprees!
what would make you happier? a YES or a NO? doesnt matter what i think, im not here to judge wether a man lives or dies. my point earlier on being a civilised nation still applies. people get away with murder, some are innocent yet pay the price of another mans guilt. i still dont believe in the death penalty. never will! this all goes back to you saying "you dont believe for a second any individual wants an outright ban on the death penalty". NONESENSE!
