Talk:Love Me, I'm a Liberal

Great article. I would note that Ochs got the melody for the song from "A Hayseed Like Me," a song that may go back to the 1890s. If it's OK, I'll see if I can find a source.--Idols of Mud (talk) 19:50, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Well done! There is a short discussion of this song in Gitlin's The Sixties (or was it Miller's Democracy is in the Streets?). 217.211.190.154 (talk) 22:13, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

"some"
Hi, there's nothing anywhere in the song lyrics that I can discern that implies Ochs was satirising only "some" liberals, and unless there is some source on Ochs' life to suggest that this was the intention with the song, I think the intended meaning is pretty clear (it's not "Love Me, I'm A Certain Kind of Liberal"). That's why I took out the line. Cheers! Slac speak up! 05:16, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
 * I agree with you about the lyrics, but more important from Wikipedia's perspective is what the source says. It doesn't support "some" either. The word was added with no explanation. — MShabazz Talk/Stalk 17:13, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
