To the editor:
Singer-songwriter Warren Zevon was described by Hadley Freeman (The Guardian) as 香蕉视频直播渙ne of the great under-appreciated talents in modern America,香蕉视频直播� who died in 2003 at the age of 56.
Zevon香蕉视频直播檚 most famous compositions include Werewolves of London, Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner, Johnny Strikes Up the Band, and Lawyers, Guns and Money 香蕉视频直播� all of which are featured on his third album, Excitable Boy (1978).
With the unfolding Shakespearean drama known as the Trump reality-show presidency, Zevon香蕉视频直播檚 lyrics to Lawyers, Guns and Money can become eerily prophetic when changes are made.
The first verse should be sung by Paul Erickson. For those unfamiliar with Erickson, he is an American lawyer with strong ties to the National Rifle Association. In 2013 he met Russian political activist Maria Butina. On Dec. 11, 2018, it was reported Butina is cooperating with US federal prosecutors as part of a plea deal. Her cooperation will mainly focus on telling investigators about the role of boyfriend Erickson and her interactions with Russian handlers. Butina previously pleaded not guilty to one count of conspiracy and a second count of acting as an agent of a foreign government when she was arrested last July.
Paul Erickson:
Well I went to the gun convention
The way I always do
How was I to know
She was with the Russians too?
