Hillary sezs: "Can you dig it,man"?

I was 15 years old when 500,000 members of the "counter culture" descended on Yasgur's farm for the Woodstock Music and Art Fair, my mom wouldn't let me go.
But from all accounts it was a rip snortin' good time, even when it rained.
It made no money for the promoters, there wasn't enough toilets, food or emergency medical care.
Three people died (drug overdoses) and there was one birth.
Also it created one hell of a mess.
So of course Hillary Clinton and Chucky Schumer tryed to earmark a cool $1 million in taxpayer funds to build a Woodstock museum:
Hippie Museum Funding Proposed by Hillary Clinton Shot Down in Senate
WASHINGTON — Hippies used to say if you remember Woodstock, you weren't really there. Republicans say presidential contender Hillary Rodham Clinton can forget about getting $1 million in taxpayer funds for a Woodstock museum.
Maybe all them folks who made the concerts can chip in $2.00 a piece? I mean really, what a price for all those flashbacks.

Digg!
