"Get Your Biscuits in the Oven and Your Buns in Bed" - Kinky Friedman and the Texas Jewboys (video)

Here's a love note from Donald Trump to Megyn Kelly.




Kinky Friedman ran for Governor of Texas in the last election and finished fourth in a field of six.  Texas is a vast useless wasteland but it's not entirely bereft of coolness.  Take care of Austin, tho, because most of it is around there.  Lose that and there's nothing left of Texas except Rick Perry with Sean Hannity on Brokeback Ridge.

Friedman relates when he sang the song the first time with the Texas Jewboys and feminists were so outraged by it that a bunch of militant Lesbians attacked the band.  According to Friedman, they fought the dykes and the dykes won.  They needed a police escort to make an escape with their rebellious gonads intact.

Note:  "I Fought the Law and the Law Won" - Bobby Fuller Four  (Search it if you like but it's not worth it.  This was obedience music from fifty years ago.)


Kinky Friedman is seventy now but he's got plenty of rabble-rousing left in him.  I say run him for President.  You think it's progressive to a put a woman in the White House and yeah, yeah, yeah but how about putting a Jew in the White House.  What's more how about a cranky Jew with a bad attitude and, no, I don't mean Netanyahu, he's just an asshole; Friedman has talent.

You've got to empathize (a little bit) with Netanyahu as it's a bitch when you're Jewish and you're not funny.

When your comedy nearly gets you killed, that's prime time and that's why we love Kinky Friedman.
