What if you're more conservative than republican? I have little in common with the modern day republican party, but quite a few common views with Libertarians. Does Ed say "Fuck 'em" to them too?9-6-98 KNOXVILLE, TN

Let me simply echo the comments that people who are judgmental are the ones who disgust me.
I have two overarching political views that rule my beliefs:
1. Blind following of all things Republican or Democrat without a mind of your own is ridiculous.
2. THERE ARE NO WRONG POLITICAL VIEWS, JUST DIFFERING OPINIONS.All the rusted signs, we ignore throughout our lives, choosing the shiny ones instead...
And he who forgets, will be destined to remember...0 -

1. I don't care if gay people get married, they can experience divorce too. That could even be a brand new reality show on Bravo.
2. I am pro-choice.
3. I am for a worker's right to organize.
4. I'm anti war for things like Iraq but I am very much so for going into Afghanistan.
5. I'm for torturing members of Al-Qaeda if it saves the lives of innocent people.
6. I like my guns. I don't have a gun rack or a Confederate flag. But if someone broke into my house they are going to have serious issues.
7. I'm for the deportation and complete removal of illegal aliens. They suck society dry.
8. I'm for extreme welfare reform. Recipients should have to take and pass a drug test and in most cases benefits should end after a set period of time. There are jobs out there, quit being lazy. If the illegals were kicked out there would be many more.
9. I'm for making the dollar mean something.
10. I am VERY anti-WalMart. In fact I generally try to avoid corporations and shop at Mom and Pop places. I don't care that is costs a little more.
11. I pay an insane amount of taxes and I am in the next to highest bracket. I am tired of people demanding free hand outs. Get an education and a job.
I'm voting for Ron Paul. If he is not on there I think I might vote for Mickey Mouse or maybe McCain. Hillary is the devil and Obama is worthless. This country cannot afford four more of Bush but Obama would be as bad in other ways.0 -

why don't you listen to Ted Nugent or Buckcherry?
Some of their music is against corporate owned politicians. Why don't you listen to something else, then?If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.

I like the music. I don't like the rantings in between songs, it gets old. I'm also not enough of a homer to think every PJ song is good. Every band has a few blunders.0 -
I've been a fan of this band for so long that I don't think there's much PJ could do to "alienate" me politically at this point. Ed is a big, bleeding heart, hippy-dippy, pseudo-Marxist liberal but he's also well-spoken, intelligent and interesting. I'm not shocked by anything he says politically anymore. I don't even have a big problem with the more "political songs" other than sh*t like "Bushleaguer" but that has more to do with it being the kind of "time stamped" song that will just be embarrassing in 5 years.
Great music is great music.So this life is sacrifice...

Good post. Although, I kind of like Bushleaguer. Especially how PJ were speaking out before it became the cool thing to do. (about this administration anyway)0 -

Murderers and child rapists also disgust me. I guess it's just hate and discrimination.0 -
I think if Ed or the band as a whole came out and tried to alienate Republicans from their fan base I would probably never listen to another PJ song again. I'm not a Republican but I can not get behind that type of discrimination towards a group simply because of their political beliefs."When one gets in bed with government, one must expect the diseases it spreads." - Ron Paul0

Very much so, yes. Your disgust not only does nothing to prevent murder and rape, it only serves the very root of those things. Secondly, your equation of republicans to murderers and child rapists is so childish and fallacious, I'm not sure where to begin with it. Republicans, just like Democrats, come in many stripes.0 -
