________________________________________

Merle Haggard has a long history of singing patriotic songs but never
has he been more powerful or politically incorrect than on the
controversial "Me and Crippled Soldiers." This anti-flag burning song
has been praised by President George Bush and loved by millions at his
live concerts. Unfortunately it came out after country radio stopped
playing singers who had passed their 40th birthdays, so it wasn't the
hit it should have been.

Two other cuts, "Under the Bridge" and "My Home is in the Street" subtly
support Merle's political statement. These tales of down-on-their-luck
individuals seem to suggest that Washington DC's powers-that-be could
have more important things to do that outrage the people who send them
there and pay their salaries.

The rest of the CD is composed of solid Merle. Nothing else has the
eloquence or sinew of "Me and Crippled Soldiers" but every song warrants
a few listens.
