Delicious Irony

David Corn dropped in on the DeLayFest last night.

What was most amusing about the evening was the song chosen for the sing-a-long portion of the festivities. A bluegrass band coaxed the audience into singing, "If I Had a Hammer." Did they not know that the song had been cowritten by a fellow accused of being a commie?

I assume Pete Seeger had a good laugh.
