Song of the Day: pos - Hemlocke Springs
For 4 days in 2009 I had a section of my first blog called “Song of the Day”, 15 years later, I bring you pos by Hemlocke Springs.

FDR has always been one of my favorite presidents, second maybe to Lincoln. Both were men the establishment assumed were one of them until, to their horror, they governed like they weren't. Both could trash the opposition in one breath and take the moral h...
