When a politician flatters the audience by implicitly describing them (near or far) as "Law Abiding, Hard Working, Common Sense" &/or "Family people" or, even worse, "God fearing", I know I'm listening to a con-artist, snake-oil sales-person, not to be trusted, never to be voted

Ah, the blessings of the cursed. Shane McGowan’s torrid and mighty voice is mud and roses punched out with swaggering stagger, ancient longing that is blasted all to hell. A Bard’s bard, may he cast his spell upon us all forevermore.
