John Mac Daddy Yes We Cain performed at the Ryman Auditorium yesterday in the grand tradition of other political thinkers of the past in an effort to answer the musical question Who Would Jesus Endorse? (WWJE). Everyone knows the boy was spanked badly by a Baptist preacher here in February, and while the coverage by the Beagle's sister publication, the Nashville Tennesseean had a big headline about faith and values, it did not quote Mac Daddy Cain as actually saying that he was a good Christian. It just said he was impressed when a fellow prisoner drew a cross on the ground on Christmas.
In that Mac Daddy says he will never never never pull troops out of Iraq, it may have been a directional sign to nuke Hanoi, rather than a private expression of faith in the public square.
The city desk at the Beagle thought about sending someone over to the Ryman to cover this important news story, but went over to the Kurdish gyro place instead.
“The only major reason I’m here today probably, is because of my faith,” ... said. “I’m here not just because I was not just one more day, one more hour, sometimes just one more minute.”
ReplyDeleteYa think the Tennessean was actually quoting Bubba Dubba? Sounds much more like him than that other guy - if you ask me which you didn't.
