If Aldean was a talented songwriter or didn’t use the writers from the Nashville hit factory and was an artist like a Willie, Johnny Cash or Kris Kristofferson his Try that in a small down song would have painted a picture and told a story and about what occurred at that courthouse in 1927. Instead he wrote some screed about what goes through someone’s Fox News brain addled mind.

From a teenage lover to an unwed mother,
Kept undercover like some bad dream.
While unwed fathers, they can’t be bothered.
They run like water through a mountain stream.

“we’re too smart for trump” not a great ploy for her. first off, that’s immediately demonstrably false. and betting on the wits of her voter bloc is not going to give her traction.

she’s particularly annoying to me.
