Arlo Guthrie - Labor (Union) Day

"I was reading the Constitution... and it starts off 'We the People of The United States, in order to form a more perfect union'....I said, 'My God! Glenn Beck's not gonna like this....you can't be anti-union and pro-American at the same time!"

1. Arlo is a registered Republican.

Go figure.

3. He does not "endorse or condone the ridiculous positions" of the GOP.

"The statement that I have previously refused to join any union is completely false. As a matter of fact I belong to more than one local of the musician's union - 802 in New York, and local 1000, the traveling musician's union. Although I have disagreements with particular unions at times, I remain a union guy from head to toe."

"Although I am a registered Republican, it does not follow that I endorse or condone the ridiculous positions the Republican party has taken as of late. I have written extensively on many subjects as noted and will continue to speak out for a world where we can work together with anyone willing to put aside ideology for a practical reality - where government works for all the people equally. I am not one of those people who believes that government works best when it serves those with the most. I am out to fight that kind of absurd anti-Americanism with the songs I sing and the life I live."
