I've searched long and hard for something you folks (liberals) might find
pleasing and have the right amount of patriotism and religiousness (is that a

guilty by association....

Yeah, but.....

"His flamboyant stage persona belied a conservative, traditional
belief system about religion and marriage. He was born to a Polish
Jewish mother and a Lebanese Maronite Catholic father, and was raised
in his father's faith. After attending a Jack Wyrtzen rally, he
reportedly became a devout evangelical Christian,[11] but he died a
faithful practicing Catholic.[12] On several of his records and
interviews, he often proclaimed his devotion to Jesus."

I guess I should have been more clear. I didn't mean to imply that the singer of

You are misinterpreting the reaction. It has more to do with the person

songs themselves. Some of us consider racist right-wingers like
you...unpatriotic.
