How lucky is Obama that Meatloaf isn't supporting him.

I just watched a video on youtube of Meatloaf singing "America the Beautiful" at a Romney gathering. I even started feeling a bit embarrassed for Romney.

Last year, at a football grand final, here in Australia, Meatloaf was the guest entertainer. He was pathetic then as well. Sad when a once good singer doesn't know when to hang up his boots.

(and yes, he demands people call him that) he talked about writing a song about driving a Mercury. Really, you have all of that money, and what you brag about is driving a Mercury? If I win the lottery, I'm not going to brag about buying a new pair of Wrangler jeans.

When I saw a little piece of the clip about a week ago, it seemed as though he was drunk. And he was awful! Sounded like the death throes of an injured wildebeast!

Fuck him....what is it with R$?? All his advisors and supports are like the cast of "day of the dead"...old, dried up and wandering aimlessly and moaning.

Clint Eastwood talking to a chair, Meatloaf singing "America the Beautiful" and Romney singing "Star Spangled Banner", all on the same bill.

Give me Obama singing Al Greene songs any day.
