http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/megadeth-singer-endorses-rick-santorum-calls-newt-gingrich-164220697.html

I went from backing Paul in this election to just not giving a fuck ... but now that Dave Mustaine has endorsed Santorum ...well, I still don't give a fuck ... but if someday I decide to give a fuck, I'll have to take this into consideration.

At the very least, Rick's intro music should be a little more interesting. Believe you me, people will take notice when Hanger 18 is blaring as you walk up to the podium. 8-)


What do you mean I couldn't be the President
of the United States of America?
Tell me something, it's still
"We the People," right?

If there's a new way,
I'll be the first in line.
But, it better work this time.

    there is something poetic about Rick Santorum entering an arena to cheers of the masses while symphony of destruction plays...

    not giving a fuck and voting for rick santorum makes sense too me.

    i will give santorum some credit for at least talking about poverty and talking about troubles facing minority communities.

    Well... causing them.

    But yeah... he certainly gets credit for that.

    I'm more worried about the mental image of santorum blasting while Megadeth takes to the stage. And... where it could be blasting FROM...

    Do you give Ron Paul credit for bringing out the truth about the drug war and how blacks are disproportionally imprisoned over drug crimes compared to whites?

    I thought about what will I do if Ron Paul didn't get the nomination. Do I vote for the GOP nominee just to defeat Obama? Or do I stick to my principles and write in Ron Paul? Obama frightens me, he outspends George Bush, he is a war-monger, I don't trust him to not try some attack on the 2A, his re-signing of the PATRIOT Act, NDAA, and raising the debt ceiling after he called Bush unpatriotic for doing the same thing truly does scare me.

    Gingrich and Romney will patronize people for their votes, Gingrich is probably one of the most crooked members of Congress ever. I cannot vote for either of them. Santorum is a war-monger, big government, and is too extreme on social issues, who gives a shit if a gay person wants to be in the Army? Assholes, that's who. The ONLY two things I like about Santorum is he is tough on illegal immigration and is a strong supporter of the 2nd Amendment.

    In the end I will write in Ron Paul, I work for the campaign and I intend on completing my assignment.

    Vote with your conscience and stick to your principals. Write in Paul. I'd rather vote for something I want and not get it than vote for something I don't want and get it.
  • A born-again Christian who is also a small business owner supports Santorum?? crazy.

    phew! that was close. :roll: Mustaine's kinda went loopy a long time ago...

    http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/ ... m-20120216

    MEGADETH frontman DAVE MUSTAINE has issued the following statement to clarify reports that he has endorsed Rick Santorum for president:
    “Contrary to how some people have interpreted my words, I have not endorsed any presidential candidate. What I did say was that I hope to see a Republican in the White House. I’ve seen good qualities in all the candidates but by no means have made my choice yet. I respect the fact that Santorum took time off from his campaign to be with his sick daughter, but I never used the word ‘endorse.’”

    hook in mouth - megadeth

    Music by D. Mustaine/D. Ellefson, Lyrics by D. Mustaine)

    A cockroach in the concrete, courthouse tan and beady eyes.A slouch with fallen arches, purging truths into great lies.A little man with a big eraser, changing history Procedures that he's programmed to, all he hears and sees.

    Altering the facts and figures, events and every issue.Make a person disappear, and no one will ever miss you.

    Rewrites every story, every poem that ever was.Eliminates incompetence, and those who break the laws.Follow the instructions of the New Ways' Evil Book of Rules.Replacing rights with wrongs, the files and records in the schools.

    You say you've got the answers, well who asked you anyway?Ever think maybe it was meant to be this way?Don't try to fool us, we know the worst is yet to come.I believe my kingdom will come.

    Chorus:F is for fighting, R is for red,Ancestors' blood in battles they've shed.E, we elect them, E, we eject them,In the land of the free, and the home of the brave.D, for your dying, O, your overture,M, they will cover your grave with manure.This spells out freedom, it means nothing to me,As long as there's a P.M.R.C.F is for fighting, R is for red,Ancestors' blood in battles they've shed.E, we elect them, E, we eject them,In the land of the free and the home of the brave.D, for your dying, O, your overture,M is for money and you know what that cures.This spells out freedom, it means nothing to me,As long as there's a P.M.R.C. [repeat chorus]

    Put your hand right up my shirt,Pull the strings that make me work,Jaws will part, words fall out,like a fish with hook in mouth.Rewrites every story, every poem that ever was.Eliminates incompetence, and those who break the laws.Follow the instructions of the New Ways' Evil Book of Rules.Replacing rights with wrongs, the files and records in the schools.

    I'm not a fish I'm a man

    You dare question thy knowledge of Megadeth!!! :shock: :ugeek: Don't make my sic Vic on you ...

    :D

    The Peace Sells lyric came to mind after the 18 reference ... although Peace Sells would make a much better intro ... almost WWE like! You have Dave Ellefson's great bass line to open things up ... so many options to add pyrotechnics in during the opening verse!
