 Wild And Blue: The Politics Of Country
Country music's glorification of the South, however, derives mostly from an idealized notion of working the land and the real life movement of millions off the land during the years of the Great Depression and World War II.
Although few country music women of the 1950s and 1960s made music as self-consciously for women as Lynn, the emergence of country women superstars put "the woman's perspective" on substantially more equal terms with that of the working man. By 1984 about one-fourth of the top country singles and albums were by women.
Country music may be one of the truest forms of popular music in giving voice to the bitter realities of class and the sorry state of male-female relations.

Not only the students, workers alone, professionals, and even government employees are sharply split because of confrontational politics, and the activists representing various professional bodies would not hesitate to destroy the image of their institution or organisation for political cause, as we see all around nowadays.
How this political confrontation affected our industrial field is acutely visible among the workers for which country’s and even world’s biggest, Adamjee Jute Mills had to be dismantled to get rid of unruly workers who turned to be more politicized.
The politics of confrontation has also inflicted heavily upon the youths and students who instead of being grown as a worth dignified workforce or manpower has now been turned into a national liability involving many of them in anti-social activities and crimes.

CNN just announced that the insurgents in Iraq -- whoever they are -- are releasing a Filipino hostage following the announcement that his country will be removing their troops as soon as possible.
I suppose it'd be hard for a country with a small contingent to let a citizen-hostage get killed just for the sake of principle, though -- or, rather, it'd be hard for a leader to stand for reelection having done that....

And according to the newest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, the public doesn’t necessarily like this whole picture: Only a third believes the country is headed on the right track, an overwhelming majority says Congress should not intervene in cases like Schiavo’s and overall support for President Bush’s proposal to overhaul Social Security is declining.
The poll, conducted by Hart/McInturff, shows that only 34 percent of those polled believe that the country is headed in the right direction, compared with 51 percent who say it’s headed in the wrong direction.
That’s a significant drop from the last survey in February, when 42 percent said the nation was on the right track.
