Can Republicans speak to the dead?
Roseanne Cash is not happy that country singer John Rich casually told a concert crowd recently that her dad, Johnny Cash, would have backed John McCain for president.
While performing at a recent McCain rally, the country singer said:
“Somebody├óΓé¼Γäós got to walk the line in the country. They├óΓé¼Γäóve got to walk it unapologetically. And I├óΓé¼Γäóm sure Johnny Cash would have been a John McCain supporter if he was still around.”
Roseanne responded via an angry statement:
“It is appalling to me that people still want to invoke my father├óΓé¼Γäós name, five years after his death, to ascribe beliefs, ideals, values and loyalties to him that cannot possibly be determined, and to try to further their own agendas by doing so. … This is especially dangerous in the case of political affiliation.”
We think Roseanne’s right!
Shame, shame McCain supporters!
