you can eat anything you want because smaller government won't interfer at alice's restaurant (if you pay using the gold standard only)

arlo guthrie endorses ron paul (we kid you not). usatoady:

"i love this guy," guthrie says in a statement released by the paul campaign. "dr. paul is the only candidate i know of who would have signed the constitution of the united states had he been there. i'm with him, because he seems to be the only candidate who actually believes it has as much relevance today as it did a couple of hundred years ago. i look forward to the day when we can work out the differences we have with the same revolutionary vision and enthusiasm that is our american legacy."
funny, we thought they were both dead.

(thanks and a tip of the kangaroo tail to makethemaccountable for the link!)

... conclusively demonstrating for all time the utter stupidity of endorsements, celebrity or otherwise.

I saw Arlo tell his Woodstock story at a Strawberry Fest some years back. He had the audience in the palm of his hand; he "blew that room away".

He should stick to his guitar and his Woodstock story. Ron Paul's appeal to the motivated-entirely-by-resentment
arm of the American electorate is a poor match with Woodie's populism, or Arlo's earlier ability to render Moloch impotent by demonstrating its absurdity.

I'm not surprised, but I am disappointed. I thought that the Paul aura of psychoceramic purity was obvious to all literate observers.

Time for a listen to Alice's Restaurant to cleanse your mind of this bad image.

Holy crap. All I can think is that Arlo hasn't heard it all about Paul. In fact, I'd bet money on it.
