The sick loonies at Veterans Today push pathetic “punk rock history” talking points

May 6, 2015 By Kathy Shaidle

So I stumbled on this at Youtube:

Johnny Punish takes you back to 1976-1982 as he visits with the ghosts of the punk rock era discussing the political music that shaped the hard times during the UK recession of the late 70’s.

Iron Pants Margaret Thatcher and Ronald “Ronbo” Reagan tried but failed to silence the working man. Instead, the people reacted and punk rock was born.

With Baltimore Riot embers still hot and the Ferguson Community still reeling from the punch into the community bits and pieces….well, what will be the brand new beat for this new 21st century generation?

And I left this comment:

You know that the Sex Pistols had already broken up by the time Thatcher was elected, right?

And Ronald Reagan had a lot of nicknames, but “Ronbo” wasn’t one of them?

And that the 1970s were an economic and cultural nightmare and Thatcher and Reagan helped turn that around?

Are you 12?

Then saw this:

The Johnny Punish Show is produced by Veterans Today Network.

Which explains everything.
