The Foremen Take Shot At Phil Graham
Yes, that is the ugly mug of Senator Phil Gramm of Texas
on the cover of the new version of "Ain't No Liberal" from '90s folk combo, The
Foremen. And placing Gramm on the cover is quite appropriate. This jerk boasts
that he has a perfect pro-life voting record. That means he would want
abortion to
be illegal. Here's the Austin-American Statesman writing about him:
"Gramm opposes abortions and gun control and supports voluntary prayer in
schools. He wants welfare programs to undergo radical surgery, and he is a
strong proponent of tougher treatment of criminals. Gramm does not waver. He
always is clear. He always is quick with answers. There are no gray positions
in his world, no areas of indecision." The Foremen will be entering the studio
in a month or so to record a new album; their last was Folk Heroes. The
next album will be produced by Andy Paley and Jim Ed Norman. In mid-February
The Foremen will play the World Folk Music Association folk festival in
Washington
D.C.
