I saw Pearl Jam open up for the Rolling Stones in Oakland back in 1997, during that time there was a crisis going on about IRaq and some UN sanctions etc.. Clinton was about to launch an attack on Iraq and Eddie at the concert was ripping him a new one, I don't think it's just Bush. I heard Ed rant about Clinton and the IRaq crisis, then three years later Ed and Pearl Jam went all out for Nader and that could not help Gore in Florida.
I think Ed just has a problem with Politics in general.
no problem. responsibility. WE all do.
Any gov't anywhere in the world gets away with whatever it does with the consent of the people. The people can shut down a gov't overnight, they have the power, ultimately, and let the gov't rule with their consent.
So when Bush or Clinton or whoever go around bombing pharmecuetical plants or entire countries they do it with our consent, we allow them to do these terrible things. Its our fault. So yeah, Ed might be a little pissed about shit like that, I sure as fuck am.
I think it may be a symptom of human ignorance, but please remember that Bush is not solely responsible. There are many, many, many more people just as responsible. There are also many ideas & worldviews responsible.
"Bush" is just a symbol. "Clinton" is just a symbol. "Obama" is just a symbol.
There are several wealthy people who are in charge!
A child's rhyme stuck in my head...

To find I'd known this all along.
environmentally he has fucked us...he wouldnt sign about 10 different treaties that would have benefited the world environmental but would make the oil companies angry. we have taken like 10000000 steps backwards environmentally with the bush admin...not cool

so, when is Bush's trial? or Condi's? or Rumsfeld's? or Cheney's?
i'm not getting into that. just pointing out (again) that it wasn't him having sex that got him in trouble. it was the lying under oath. every single person around here seems to forget that.
once again, clinton did not get impeached for getting laid. he was impeached for lying under oath.
Dude...it was the root of the situation. A heavy republican house jumped all over a chance to stick it Clinton when they saw an opportunity to.
Anyhow he was aquitted of both charges...and rightfully so. Who really gives a shit if he lied about fucking Lewinsky! or if he reached a settlement with an opportunistic Paula Jones.
I care about a President selling our country out... and doing major damage that will take years to repair while doing it.
"Had my eyes peeled both wide open, and I got a glimpse...of my innocense, got back my inner sence, baby got it...still got it"
"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."
now, that is classic from your president...:D
cracks me up...i didn't realize bush is funnier than our ex-president erap...

blah, blah, blah.
never said i agreed with him being impeached. you posted something that wasn't true and i corrected you on it. k?

Ok...but that really was a general statement I made. The point... is that we make a huge deal about morals when it comes to someone cheating on their spouse and then "lying" about it...but not when someone cheats on the country they are in charge of.
Which does the most damage? That's all I was trying to say.
But thanks for holding me accountable of the "truth".

i'm not trying to argue with you or anyone else about bush. the only thing i pointed out was the mistake you made in your post. you guys want to post all the terrible things about bush, knock yourself out. i won't complain. don't try to make it look like i'm making excuses for anyone.

Oh it's mind blowing! Clinton gets impeached for fucking an intern...and Bush doesn't get anything but bad approval ratings for fucking a country!

I bet he only listens to music that came out in 2000 or before. That way he wouldn't have to hear his name being mocked on a lot of hit music albums.
