The corporate goons of the 21st Century traded in their guns & clubs for briefcases & loopholes...

I don't listen to limbaugh, I just know that communists are scum.

[MynameisKayum]

@Nerudah

The ones in the song and the video sound like a bunch of Communists, and thus deserve it.

[hoosierhiver]

2012 is going to be a hot one.

[Nerudah]

@MynameisKayum it takes a 'special' kind of hero to shoot at unarmed people yes..

[Islandersrule66]

Kayum! U are ignorant of our workers rights history. Stop listening to Limbaugh! He lies

[flashkaput]

@imamymay > And a corporate media puppet that shills freedom & equality but only sells diversions...

[MynameisKayum]

Vigilante man sounds like a hero.

We must never forget our history. Through all the corporate propaganda that is spewed throughout the land we must never forget what made us who we are. Struggle

@vudu8ball As Ry Cooder says in his interview on the BBC website "FDR's control on the bankers has been removed..it was removed during Reagan's time and we're in for a rough ride as in the Depression,,possibly alot worse".

[RulleKugg]

Woody Guthrie !!

Tre ackord underbar text blir aldrig för gammal!

Tycte det var roligare att spela hans låtar

än "Svarte Rudolf han dansar".

T.o.m Robert Zimmerman börja som en

Guthrie-kopia.

@vudu8ball

Hoorah for Spain! You guys had the balls to indite that butcher Allende when no body else would. Too bad we can't get Donald Rumsfeld or Dick Chenny to take a vacation in Spain :)

[metacosmos]

@vudu8ball No, I am a Spaniard but lefty.

[vudu8ball]

@metacosmos It's nice to know there are people in this country who haven't forgotten where they come from. Thanks for you comment.

[metacosmos]

@vudu8ball Absolutely true.
