When I read this essay
The unteachable ignorance of the red states
By Jane Smiley
and came to the part where she says, "The history of the last four years shows that red state types, above all, do not want to be told what to do they prefer to be ignorant. As a result, they are virtually unteachable."
"Can the Democrats appeal to such voters? Do they want to?"
I thought a long time on how best to answer her and decided this way would be good.
The lines "oh You're So Condescending your Gall Is Never Ending we Don't Want Nothin', Not A Thing From You"
I found to be particularly fitting. ;-)
Oh We're Not Gonna Take It
no, We Ain't Gonna Take It
oh We're Not Gonna Take It Anymore
we've Got The Right To Choose And
there Ain't No Way We'll Lose It
this Is Our Life, This Is Our Song
we'll Fight The Powers That Be Just
don't Pick Our Destiny 'cause
you Don't Know Us, You Don't Belong
oh We're Not Gonna Take It
no, We Ain't Gonna Take It
oh We're Not Gonna Take It Anymore
oh You're So Condescending
your Gall Is Never Ending
we Don't Want Nothin', Not A Thing From You
your Life Is Trite And Jaded
boring And Confiscated
if That's Your Best, Your Best Won't Do
oh.....................
oh.....................
we're Right/yeah
we're Free/yeah
we'll Fight/yeah
you'll See/yeah
oh We're Not Gonna Take It
no, We Ain't Gonna Take It
oh We're Not Gonna Take It Anymore
oh We're Not Gonna Take It
no, We Ain't Gonna Take It
oh We're Not Gonna Take It Anymore
no Way
