Fightin' Side

Dad would be abhorred with what is happening in our country now.  So would Merle Haggard.

I know that Dad is rolling over in his grave over the Liberals relentless efforts to destroy our beautiful country that he sacrificed so much to fight for and defend.  Dad made it clear how he felt about the black lives matter arm of the Democrat party inciting racism and violence.  It's even worse now!  Dad also made it clear how he felt about traitor Kaepernick and his disgusting spit in the face kneeling during the national anthem at NFL football games. As big of a football fan that Dad was his whole life, he would not tolerate such despicable disrespect and contempt for him as a war veteran and for his country.  He immediately quit watching NFL football.

Dad got out of here just in time before these disgusting liberal Democrat Communists politicized the coronavirus pandemic to try to remove Trump from office.  That didn't work so now they've moved on to the tired old standby of trying to increase racism through their black lives matter organization.

The Liberal Democrat Communists easily brainwash people through their media arm.  Television news isn't news it's political propaganda for the Liberal Democrat Communists.

Anyway, my point is that Dad would be disgusted at how easily the Liberal Democrat Communists are destroying our nation and brainwashing the weak into believing their lies.

At one of the Merle Haggard concerts Dad attended, he purchased a T-shirt that he often wore.  On the front it said "Fightin' Side" with a picture of Merle Haggard.  On the back, if I remember correctly, it had a US flag with the words "If You Don't Love It, Leave It".

Dad was always a true patriot.  He loved this country.  It saddened him to see it being destroyed by the left and their brainwashed minions.

All of those liberal pansies who hate America need a good dose of Merle Haggard's "Fightin' Side of Me"


"The Fightin' Side of Me" was released January 26, 1970 -- a great year!  :-) Looks like this video was recorded not long after that.

Just before his death, Dad is still proudly wearing his "Fightin' Side" T-shirt.

The Fightin' Side Of Me
Merle Haggard

I hear people talkin' bad,
About the way they have to live here in this country
Harpin' on the wars we fight
And gripin' 'bout the way things oughta be
And I don't mind 'em switchin' sides
And standin' up for things they believe in
But when they're runnin' down our country, man
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down a way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'
When you're runnin' down our country, hoss
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

I read about some squirrelly guy
Who claims that he just don't believe in fightin'
And I wonder just how long
The rest of us can count on bein' free
They love our milk and honey
But they preach about some other way of livin'
But when they're runnin' down our country, man
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'
When you're runnin' down our country, man
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'
When you're runnin' down our country, hoss
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

As Merle Haggard and Dad would say, "If you don't love it, leave it... When you're running down our country, man, You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me".

I echo their sentiment.

That's my two cents.
