You've stumped me. Are you talking about the background music on his original ad? What was the music, and who was the composer?


A small correction is in order, the music in the, "Strong," ad is a cheap knock-off of Aaron Copland's Appalachian Spring, not a performance of Copland's composition.

Nonetheless, even a cheap knockoff is still an homage to Copland--an out, gay, commie Jew.


Okay. I didn't recognize it as having been related to Appalachian Spring, which I vaguely remember having played during my college orchestra days.

This is the most familiar segment of the piece

You mean like any other politician?


Re-read my post. I addressed this issue.

It really is a testament to America, to the Republican Party, and to the Great State of Texas, that someone as brazenly stupid and repulsive as Rick Perry could have done as well as he has done for himself in his political career. Just look at his science grades:

No A's, lots of D's and F's, in a low-status state university where he was pretending to study animal science.

Here are his grades from 1970-1972:

[img][800:693]http://brobrubel.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/2-e432155d61.jpg[/img]

A "C" in "Reproduction in Farm Animals." How hard could that be, for a boy raised on a sheep farm? He must have seen his sheep fornicate once or twice.

A "D" in "Feeds and Feeding." No wonder he thinks it would be great to get rid of the Department of Health and Human Services.

A "D" in "Writing for Professional Men." He is a functional illiterate.

Grades this low, at a state university in Texas, prove that he is a moron.


If I were judging this man by his grades he would suddenly seem smarter.

I'm just amused that someone on the creative team had the acute sense of irony to set Perry's homophobic ad to music composed by a Gay, Jewish composer (and one-time Communist Party member).

Or maybe instead of irony, it was just stupidity. Either way works for me.


I think that he should have used this one for background music
