Dan Quayle Has No Love For The Poor

@ 12:06 PM (25 months, 27 days ago)

Seems like former Vice President Dan Quayle has no love for the poor.

He was attending a John Mellencamp concert, but got a little miffed and walked out of the concert.

So what caused Quayle's anger?

Mellencamp intro'd the song "Walk Tall" by saying "This next one is for all the poor people who’ve been ignored by the current administration."

The truth hurts, doesn't it?

  1. "Dan Quayle has no love for the poor": kind of like saying Hitler was a little bit wrong on the Jewish Question!

  3. Who knew John Cougar was so cool? I like that bumper sticker: Bush - The Quayle Presidency we never had.

  4. Knowing what the climate of a John Mellencamp concert would be,why did he go there in the first place? You get what you pay for and if you pay for a show featuring an artist who is not a fan of your political leaning or the current administration, then you should expect a little verbal smack. What a Potatoe Head!
