Music: Velvet Underground drummer Mo Tucker explains her politics

  • It drives me nuts to see that X millions are being allocated to build a turtle tunnel, a donkey museuma salamander crossing, etc, etc, etc.
  • Former Velvet Underground Maureen “Mo” Tucker • Explaining why she showed up in a news clip as a bonafide Tea Party supporter. While we stand by the fact that she doesn’t have anything to explain, she did offer a little bit of insight to her political views to the St. Louis Riverfront Times. She claims to dislike the heavy spending of the Obama administration, although she’s a Democrat/independent who doesn’t think highly of George W. Bush or Sarah Palin, either. She also wants more oversight of social welfare programs and less spending on frivolous projects. “Anyone who knows me knows that I’m not a fool, a racist, a Nazi,” she wrote. “Anyone who knows me knows I’m afraid of flying, afraid of bugs, but not afraid to say what I think.” source
