    Lee Greenwood to pass flag to a new generation of patriotic crapmeisters

    Ted Barlow points us in the direction of the next big thing that will thankfully only last about 9 minutes in America's collective cultural consciousness.

    Have You Forgotten

    I hear people saying we don't need this war
    I say there's some things worth fighting for
    What about our freedom and this piece of ground
    We didn't get to keep 'em by backing down
    Now they say we don't realize the mess we're getting in
    Before you start your preaching let me ask you this my friend

    Have you forgotten how it felt that day?
    To see your homeland under fire
    And her people blown away
    Have you forgotten when those towers fell?
    We had neighbors still inside going thru a living hell
    And you say we shouldn't worry 'bout bin Laden
    Have you forgotten?

    They took all the footage off my T.V.
    Said it's too disturbing for you and me
    It'll just breed anger that's what the experts say
    If it was up to me I'd show it everyday
    Some say this country's just out looking for a fight
    Well after 9/11 man I'd have to say that's right

    Have you forgotten how it felt that day?
    To see your homeland under fire
    And her people blown away
    Have you forgotten when those towers fell?
    We had neighbors still inside going thru a living hell
    And you say we shouldn't worry 'bout bin Laden
    Have you forgotten?

    Now I've been there with the soldiers
    Who've gone away to war
    And you can bet that they remember
    Just what they're fightin' for

    Have you forgotten all the people killed?
    Some went down like heros in that Pennsylvania field
    Have you forgotten about our Pentagon?
    And all the loved ones that we lost and those left to carry on
    Don't you tell me not to worry about bin Laden
    Have you forgotten?


    Have you forgotten how it felt that day?
    To see your homeland under fire
    And her people blown away
    Have you forgotten when those towers fell?
    We had neighbors still inside going thru a living hell
    And you say we shouldn't worry 'bout bin Laden
    Have you forgotten?

    Have you forgotten?

    Have you forgotten?

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Well, that certainly was a steaming pile. So who is this month's Toby Keith?

    Darryl Worley.

    With the requisite just-so facial hair, that lets us know he's manly, and a kicky post-yuppie hairstyle that says: 'sensitive', Darryl's fifteen minutes of fame has started, so don't blink or he could be gone faster than you can say "Billy Ray Cyrus". And considering the sterling work his publicist is doing, he could be gone even sooner.

    From his own promotional website, they link to a USA Today article about this newest flag-wavin' country heartthrob.

    DARRYL FEATURED IN USA TODAY
    By Brian Mansfield, Special for USA TODAY

    Country artist Darryl Worley is first out of the gate with a record that endorses war with Iraq. The top new song on this week's country chart at No. 43, Have You Forgotten? may seem to equate Saddam Hussein with Osama bin Laden, but the record is striking a chord.

    "Almost everybody that calls wants to know: a) how can I get it? and b) will you play it again right now?" says Scott Lindy of WPOC-FM in Baltimore. (Related item:Read Have You Forgotten? lyrics.)

    Worley and Wynn Varble wrote the song, which will appear on Worley's next album in May, after Worley traveled to Afghanistan with the USO in December. The West Tennessee native, who topped the country charts last year with I Miss My Friend, premiered Have You Forgotten? at the Grand Ole Opry in January.

    "We did four separate performances of that song out there that weekend," he says. "Every one of them was a standing ovation."

    Of course Worley and his crack A&R team hope that you are like most country music fans and get tired of all that fancy city readin' stuff. Then you won't read this from the same article:

    Steve Warren, who consults for about 40 country radio stations, wouldn't have applauded. "Singing a song about going to war with Saddam because bin Laden hit us is a leap of logic that I don't think any informed people outside the White House can make," Warren says. "I wouldn't play the thing, no matter how many requests I got for the sucker."

    Whoops. How did that get in there? Got to love the promo picture though. It just screams...Wal-Mart endcap...$8.94.
